Riders: Min 2 riders Max 6 riders

Trip level: Difficult
A very good level of fitness is required. Expect to walk 5-7 hours per day not including lunch stops and with an altitude difference of about +/-950m.
You should be comfortable walking on steep mountainous terrain. You should also be sure-footed on mountain paths and do not have fear for heights (NOT suitable for those suffering from vertigo).
The walks take place on good paths for the most part, although they are sometimes steep and rocky in nature with some loose limestone. In addition, on the sections in the gorge you will encounter steps, tunnels, metal ladders and bridges.
We have chosen to grade the holiday difficult with a challenging notion largely due to the nature of the trail itself rather than the amount of ascent or distance each day.
You need good walking boots throughout the trip.


Passport and Visa Requirements: Passport valid for at least three months beyond length of stay required by all nationals referred to in the chart above except: (a) 1. EU nationals holding a valid national ID card. Passport NoteFranc. more
