is typical, but there are a lot of walks possible in the area, and
we are happy to adapt to group ideas where appropriate. We reserve
the right to change the walks as necessary to suit the local weather
conditions. Depending on flight arrangements there may be a chance
to see more(or less!) on days 1 and 8. Outline itinerary below,
