Your guides will ensure that your enjoyment is equal to the magnificent scenery of this spectacular coastal foot path. This backpack has almost everything - sweeping sandy beaches, sea caves, rocky headlands, shelves teeming with marine life, and spectacular waterfalls. Besides the backpacking, the trail offers many opportunities to explore tidal pools in the area. The bays are full of inter-tidal life. Hiking through the ancient forests is also a popular activity. Fishing is superb, provided you have a license! The West Coast Trail is a spectacular trekking trip but is also considered challenging. Participants are required to be of good physical fitness level and as the group equipment will be shared they should be capable of carrying 12 – 15 kg per person above personal equipment!
