Frequently Asked Questions

How fit do I need to be?

We recommend a moderate to high fitness level to complete this trek. We walk approx. 31 km all up (5 km Friday, 17 km on Saturday and a further 9 km on Sunday), there are quite a few hills, some stairs and uneven ground. If you'd like to discuss if this adventure is for you, please email us on info@womendventure.com.au, we'll happily give you a call.

Do I need experience?

You don't need hiking experience, but you will need a moderate fitness level because of the distance covered and the type of terrain we will be covering. Every WEA trip has two guides, and we are happy to help you learn about all things hiking.

I'm not sure camping is for me? Well, how does this sound?

• A dedicated camp chef to prepare all of your delicious meals
• Pre-dinner nibbles and a drink or two around the fire
• Tents set up for you ready for a good night's sleep in the great outdoors-one person to a tent
• Hot showers and flush toilets close by (yes, this is a bit selling point!)
• Beautiful night skies and gorgeous scenery

How many women will be on my adventure?

We like to keep things quite small and intimate at WEA to offer you a supportive and friendly environment. We have a maximum capacity of 10 plus your WEA hosts and local guides.

I'll be coming on my own, is that ok?

Not a problem at all!  Lots of women come on their own to our adventures. Your Women Embrace Adventure hosts will make sure everyone you meet everyone at lunch on Friday. We always have lots of fun; there's no pressure, no judgment, and lots of encouragement from everyone. By the end of the weekend, you may have just found some new adventure friends!

Are there showers and toilets at the Campground? Yes! Hot showers and flushing toilets are available.

If the wind is strong enough to be a potential safety risk, we will contact you in the days before the tour to discuss your options.
