The hiking on this trip is moderate - challenging and you should be fairly fit. Terrain is rocky and boggy on some of the trails and the last section of the hike to the base of the Towers is a clamber over glacial moraine. As this is a camping departure, you should also be used to travelling in remote areas and be prepared for challenging weather conditions. Please make sure you pack accordingly. Age Limit: We can accept clients between the ages of 12 and 70 on our scheduled trips. Younger hikers are welcome but we will suggest a custom family departure. Older hikers are also welcome to join us but we reserve the right to request completion of a medical suitability questionnaire. Note for small groups of 2-3 clients, we reserve the right to take meals in the refugiosIncludes
