Walking Grades and Fitness:
Grading is a somewhat difficult topic as much depends on the individual's perception of his or her own abilities. The following is intended as a general guide to our walking grades.

Treks:
are for the more serious hill walker and a higher level of physical fitness is required. Although we have designed our treks in such a way that most reasonably fit person can participate; some walking days are normally 6-8 hours (with plenty of rests) and may involve up to 900m(occasionally) or more in ascent and descent. You should be prepared for several consecutive days walking, often at higher altitudes, so stamina is important.
