This adventure is physically and mentally demanding, therefore requires good level of fitness and mental strength. You will be required to wear snowshoes and carry an overnight backpack, which will weigh between 21 to 25kg. You will also need warm, waterproof winter clothing.
Children 15 years and older should be able to complete this tour, but they will be required to carry a fully loaded pack. For families with children, they distribute the pack weight so that children carry a little less, but parents need to pick up the balance. Please contact the team for more details and to discuss your child’s fitness and ability.
