Walking Holidays in the Alps

Vana, our guide, was amazing (fun, relaxed and knowledgable about the trails and the terrain). I appreciated her ability to “read” the group, flexing expectations with weather conditions (intense winds) and the groups abilities. This was not a trip to stop and “smell the roses” which is maybe more what I was hoping for (more cultural and historical information). Croatia is a stunningly beautiful country and the vistas did not disappoint. It was fun to explore the coast and the island more intimately. Accommodations were simple and clean. Breakfasts were excellent, especially at our last hotel. My biggest concern is that our ending spot (not where we started) near Zadar was more challenging to book return flights from and I wish that Exodus and provided transportation to a more major transportation hub, Zagreb maybe?

I’ve wanted to do this hike for so long and it really didn’t disappoint. The days were long, steep and tough from the very first day to the last but the scenery was just stunning. I loved crossing from one country to the next, seeing the landscape change from alpine cliff to meadow, to glacial valley. It was beautiful. It is full on so get some hill training in but this really was beautiful.

We opted to do this over hiking Mt Kilimanjaro. So glad we did. I loved the variety of the wildlife and the hiking. The terrain was excellent with a good amount of challenge. Clifford our guide was fabulous. He pointed out the wildlife, gave us interesting information on all sorts of things and led our walks managing a range of abilities and speeds. We loved the trip and had an awesome time. Would highly recommend it to anyone.
