Difficulty

Severe

Hiking challenging trails where simple scrambling, with the occasional use of the hands, is a distinct possibility. The trails are often filled with all manner of obstacles both small and large, and the hills are very steep. Obstacles and challenges are often unexpected and can be unpredictable.

High Exposure

Some trail sections have exposed ledges or steep ascents/descents where falling could cause serious injury.

Remoteness

Little chance of being seen or helped in case of an accident.
