Trek itineraries are designed so that a person in moderately good shape will have little difficulty achieving each day's goals. Better fitness level will mean more enjoyment from your trekking experience.

GRADE YOURSELF FOR A TREK!

Treks are carefully graded "easy", "moderate" "moderate to challenging" and "strenuous".  If you require any assistance in choosing an appropiate trek, we will be happy to recommend one that is best suited.  Rest days are built in when the trail is particularly demanding and make for good cultural interaction.
