Key Highlights

Diverse Landscapes: Hike through rainforest, moorland, alpine desert, and arctic summit zones.
High Success Rate: The 7-day option improves altitude adaptation with a “climb high, sleep low” approach.

Physical Challenge: Demanding but highly rewarding; requires good fitness and mental determination.
