Grading

MODERATE – GRADE 3
This is a moderate grade walk along paths that are well defined and clearly marked. You should be an experienced walker and be able to walk for up to 8 hours a day (although most days are between 4-5 hours) in hot sun on dusty and stony tracks. There are some steep descents and small ascents and the terrain is mountainous. A good level of fitness is required. As with all of our trips it is important that you are well prepared. We suggest that you undertake regular exercise – swimming, cycling, and jogging, three to four times a week for three months prior to your departure.
The walking times are calculated from town centre to town centre and may vary depending on the accommodations booked.

What You Carry

As the walks are fully supported you only need to carry a daypack with your daily requirements including wet weather gear, water bottle, lunch supplies, mobile phone and sun protection etc.
