What to expect
Expect a straightforward forest walk with minimal elevation gain or technical terrain. The path winds through mature laurel woodland where shade is plentiful and the air stays cool and damp. Your guide will set a relaxed rhythm, pausing to point out flora and the forest's character. The experience is sensory—listening to birdsong, feeling the humidity, noticing how light filters through canopy layers. There's no scrambling or exposed sections. Wear trainers with grip and bring a light layer; humidity can surprise newcomers.
