Peru Trekking Tours

Walking in the peace of thick pine forested mountains and grassy meadows, with cool crystal clear streams, but in the domain of wild brown bears and raptors. The legend of Orpheus never far away. Meticulously kept hotel, with good food.

Andrew Law Bulgaria: Rodopi Mountains

This was a most memorable trek and comes highly recommended. It is far less crowded than other routes in the Alps and this brings a real sense of ‘getting away from it all”. The views are spectacular and surprisingly varied (boulder fields, snow, glacial landscapes etc.). The trek is, however, quite challenging due to the duration of each day; there really is no let up. A significant portion of our group did not complete the full route, as it is very “full on”. But if you are fit, don’t have significant issues with vertigo and comfortable with very long ascents and descents, it is really a fabulous experience.

There was a late snow melt this year, so there were sections which required micro spikes but this was an added bonus and added a real sense of achievement. The food was of high quality and generously proportioned. The tents were spacious and the mountain huts were a fun experience (though not great for sleep!).

Overall, a really wonderful trip.
