Please Note: This weekend is best suited for those with hiking or regular walking experience. The route covers approximately 10.5 miles each day over two days, with hilly, uneven, and occasionally rugged terrain. It’s a rewarding and achievable challenge for those prepared, and if you’ve walked and completed the Seven Sisters in the South of the UK ( or something similar - think 3 peaks, West Highland Way) you’ll find the level of difficulty and undulation similar.
We kindly ask that all participants ensure they are fit and ready for this type of walk. While we’ll do our best to support anyone who encounters difficulties, Walk Wild cannot be held responsible for any issues arising from lack of preparation or fitness, including the need to withdraw. Thank you for understanding!
