What to expect
Daily walks range from moderate to challenging, covering mixed terrain—coastal paths, sandy beaches, steep ascents. You'll camp in established lodges rather than tents, with hot meals and comfortable beds. Guides lead from the front, pointing out flora and fauna, sharing local knowledge about the region's geology and ecology. Expect variable coastal weather: bring layers and waterproofs. Each day finishes with communal dinner; mornings start with breakfast before heading out. The minivan shuttles between trailheads and accommodation, so you're not carrying excessive load.
