Explore further into more challenging terrain with this fast-paced hiking trip. We will move off-trail for long distances, walking along ridge lines and bagging peaks. We will keep the movement fast by mixing some scrambling and trail running.

Routes are dictated by weather, group fitness and objectives. There will not be any technical climbing or mountaineering involving ropes. However, you may need to use your hands when it gets steep.
