It would be easy for people to underestimate the level of activity involved... it is a pretty active outing. The hiking trail is not overly strenuous, but it is challenging due to mud, rocks, roots etc. But fun ! Our guide Lindsey was a great partner on the trip. Very informative, and really engaging and fun. Just the right level of interaction, and conversation.”
