Mountain Hiking

What’s mountain hiking and how does it differ from regular hiking? Well, basically put, we are using the term “mountain hiking” as a more adventurous way to describe some of our hiking/trekking related programs that leaves the popular hiking trails and chooses a part of the mountain landscape that is less traveled. So, if you love hiking and want to take it a half step further, but not so far as to do more serious mountaineering type activities, then you’ll love our Mountain Hiking programs.
