    Hi Ewajuz 👋

    First of all..i am very impressed of how fast you guys finished the whole loop in just 9hrs in total 👏
    I would like to follow your trail this coming weekend with a friend. Can you give me hints about this hike? Is it a very challenging hike? It has good elevation gain 1,365m

    I was also impressed with Ewa, as it was her first hike after a while;) Hike is well marked and built, so there shouldn't be any challenge to follow if you have the GPS route. There a quick paved road section on the top - but you'll be back on the beautiful trail swiftly - depending to hidden oasis and back to the starting point. It feels quite a long decent, so might might want to take a hiking pole with you. Have fun, especially now after the rain there will be lots of greenery!

    Indeed long hike, we had fast pace and we hardly did any breaks so took us less time. Prepare for longer time just in case.
    With premium Wikiloc you don’t need separate GPS coordinates just click ‘follow the trail’.

    Thanks Ewajuz! Yea i used to follow “follow the trail” whenever i go for a hike which doesn’t have proper path and especially long distance like this. Thank you both for your response.
