Fitness & preparation: This is an active hiking trip, not a sightseeing weekend. Expect uphill and downhill sections, uneven terrain, stone stairways and big elevation changes every day, so a good level of fitness is essential. Not an experienced hiker? We can help you with a simple two-month training plan to build your endurance. Start preparing early.
What to bring: Sturdy hiking shoes, comfortable hiking clothes, swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, a reusable water bottle and a small daypack. Beach time depends on weather and sea conditions.
