PROFILE
Our selection of walks is intended to give as much variety in terms of length, terrain and scenery as possible.

There are some steep ascents / descents, often rough underfoot, and occasionally exposed sections. All that is required is a steady head and a willingness 'to have a go'. Most walks are in the 1500M to 2500M height range. A good level of fitness will help acclimatisation.

The days can be rearranged if needed. We reserve the right to change the programme if conditions dictate.
