Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ROUTE

Two concentrated days of trekking

The itinerary delivers two days of focused trekking bookended by travel days, letting participants tackle the core peaks on a compact schedule while keeping the overall trip to four days.

THE BASE

Chalet comfort every night

Accommodation is chalet-style for the three nights of the trip—twin-share by default with a single supplement available—so there are no tent nights and walkers return to a bed each evening.

THE GROUP

Small groups, big views

Group sizes are deliberately small—approximately 15 with a maximum of 20—so the experience emphasizes camaraderie on the trail and a more personal guiding ratio.

What the day feels like

What the four days feel like

Expect a brisk rhythm: a travel day out of Canberra, two days spent on sustained climbs and ridge walking across the peaks, and a final travel day back to Canberra. Evenings are spent in chalet accommodation with all meals provided, making the programme a concentrated outdoor push with creature comforts each night.
