Hiking and nature activities program by the Ministry of Tourism
The Ministry of Tourism offers a hiking and nature activities program with experienced guides.
"The selected nature trails traverse lush green forests and plains, beautiful hills offering viewpoints overlooking breathtaking landscapes, colourful villages, lacey coastlines and colourful meadows," said a statement posted on the heartlandoflegends website.
The programme, it adds, is suitable for experienced walkers and hiking enthusiasts.
Most trails are considered "high difficulty" and have significant elevation changes, so participants will need stamina and the necessary equipment, including hiking shoes and poles, sunscreen, food and plenty of water.
It is clarified that transportation to the starting points is not provided, so all participants should be at the designated starting point of each hike on time.
