Additional information

This trip contributes to the welfare of local communities and the preservation of cultures and environments. We practice Leave No Trace, ensuring our trash is carried out with us when we leave.  We try to reduce single use plastic in our tours.

  1. Medical and Fitness:

Participants need to be physically fit and able to carry a daypack on all days, with their trail lunch, water, rain jackets etc. Back / knee injuries, vertigo and any history of heart problems or lung problems would preclude clients from joining this tour as it is strenuous and travels through remote areas when communications are sometimes lacking.

  1. Food and Beverage

Food in the region is generally locally sourced and produced. It is simple in presentation but

tasty and often organic. Fruit and vegetables are seasonally available. Vegetarians can be catered for but may find that in some place’s options are limited. A vegan diet is more complicated to adhere to since vegetarian options will usually rely on eggs, cheese, dairy, bread, fruit and local vegetables. Thus, a vegan diet would mainly be bread, fruit and vegetables (salads etc.). Vegan or vegetarian substitutes such as tofu and soy are starting to become more widely available in the cities. Gluten intolerances are becoming more widely known and some restaurants will be able to cater for a range of dietary requirements, but in the mountains and at family run guest houses this is difficult. Let us know if you have specific allergies or intolerances
