How difficult are the hikes

The physical rating gives you an idea of how much physical exertion is required on a particular trip. Physical rating is rated at 4 out of 5. Be prepared for some serious physical activity. The fitter you are, the more you'll enjoy it, as most activities will be challenging.

I would like to know the mileages & elevation gains of the hikes.

Day 02: Distance will be approximately 8 km or 2 hours with an elevation gain of 600 m. The hike is challenging with rocks and stairs towards the Devil's Gate. Day 03: Distance today will be approximately 7.9 km with an elevation gain of 650 m. The hike is challenging with a rocky surface most of the way. Day 04: Distance today will be approximately 11.6 km with an elevation gain of 521 m. The hike is challenging. Day 05: Distance today will be approximately 13.6 km with an elevation of 232 m. The hike is classified as moderate.

I am a 65 yr old solo female traveller. I have done a lot of walking holidays. What is the grading of this hike? I consider myself very fit.

This hike is graded 4 out of 5, so you can look forward to a challenging and rewarding adventure. It involves some serious physical activity — but the fitter you are, the more you'll enjoy every step. Since you've done several walking holidays and consider yourself very fit, this trip sounds like a great match for you!

I had a fantastic trip through the Balkans. It was a great mix of history, culture, scenic sights and leisure activities. The early days included some heavy content about the war in Yugoslavia, which was later balanced with more of a fun holiday vibe. And we had lots of free time to explore for ourselves. Kudos also to our tour leader Mia, whose passion for her country and its history were infectious. And she didn't mind socialising with the group after a long day. Part of our wonderful journey is thanks to her, as well as the local tour guides who also did a great job. The reason why I didn't give five stars was down to two issues. The hammam in Sarajevo that was recommended to me turned out to be very basic, and wouldn't even provide a peeling session due to water shortage. Overall it was a rather disappointing experience. The second incident happened in one of the vans we travelled with. It had a faulty exhaust pipe which caused gases to enter the inside of the van. With windows opened and full ventilation on we could manage, and Mia's offer to have the van exchanged halfway was not taken up as no one was badly affected. But it appeared that the driver had been aware of the defect, so he should never have used that vehicle in the first place. Other than those minor glitches the tour was a great and educative experience, and I would definitely recommend it.Show more
