GRADING DEFINITION:

To give you an indication of the difficulty of our trips, we've graded our adventures into four categories: easy, moderate and challenging. We take many factors into consideration in these grading, including distances covered, terrain, altitude, weather conditions and vehicle support.

v      Easy: Suitable for most people in good health. These trips generally include short days on good paths and at low altitudes.

v      Moderate: A reasonable level of fitness is required, as these trips can require sustained endurance levels, hills, longer days and altitude. All of our moderate trips have a support vehicle following closely, so weary travellers can hitch a ride and take a rest for a while.

v      Challenging: These trips are physically demanding and best suited for strong people with a high endurance level. Days can be long, often at altitude, in remote regions and sometimes without a support vehicle nearby. Travellers may be required to carry a backpack.
