How much walking

Hours per day: 2½-5½ 

A longish walk to start with, but then moderate lengths, which can be shortened further if required. Local taxis can be summoned at will.

Terrain

Difficulty: medium 

All the paths are signed on the ground and on the maps, so you hardly need our walking notes (expertly written and checked by our pioneers). Terrain tricky through woodland on Day 2, otherwise well-established paths. Average cumulative uphill stretches (CUSs) 331m per day.
