The trek was difficult but attainable. I felt proud of completing it. I enjoyed the variety of other travelers in our group. I had so much fun I wish it wasn't over already! I want to do another trip!

A four day hiking journey that had as much beauty as it had challenges. Breathtaking in every way. Rewarding and overwhelming. The camping makes it that much more intimate with the trail and that much more challenging with the journey.
Alex | Traveled in September
The tour crams in so much into two weeks, which is quite demanding, but ultimately worthwhile. Our leader, Darwin, was incredibly organised, friendly and approachable. His main concern was our safety for the entire time but he also made the effort to include himself in activities and it felt like he was a part of the team. Don't miss the chance to climb Rainbow Mountain at the end - the views are more than worth it!
