It was a great experience! Jamie and Kai are amazing guides! Jamie took great care of us, very attentive and responsive. Remember to pack some snack and lunch! We went up to 3000 m, and you can feel it! As it says in the description, it is a moderate hike: do not underestimate it! I’m very glad I had the chance to do it, I can only recommend it!

Jaime, our guide, was fantastic. The hike was amazing and delivered on every level and exceeded on our expectations. This is a must experience and we would do it all again and more. Many thanks to Jaime for his enthusiasm of nature and the history of the land.

Beautiful views! The hike was challenging but not overly strenuous. Our guide did an excellent job of tailoring our hike to the weather to achieve the best views. The hike can be done in tennis shoes and jeans but there was some snow, you don’t need intense hiking gear to be successful! During the hike you are also accompanied by an exuberant pup named Kai- he loves sticks.

We had an amazing experience! Despite some uncertainty due to weather, Jaime made the trip up the mountain both safe and unforgettable. Though we couldn’t reach the full 3,000 meters due to the snow, the journey was incredible with amazing views at the whole way up. Jaime and his dog Kai create a welcoming atmosphere with great conversation and shared experiences. Highly recommend!

The hike with Jaime really could not have been better. Jaime was an organised and responsible guide with super English. He was also good fun and shared some interesting stories and information about the area. He was able to adapt our route as necessary. The hike he took us on was beautiful, stunning views. A wonderful experience from start to finish. Thanks so much for this unforgettable hike, Jaime!
