Itinerary description

Shawka has several trails between the mountains. We chose this loop.
Mostly it is easy but there are some steep spots up and down hill with loose rocks which are slippery.
The views are really nice and the weather was cool but it was before the rain so there are not much water spots. If you want to enjoy it more then wait after the rainy season after January.
Reaching the starting point does not require a 4x4 but it is advisable since it is rough.
Please leave the mountains clean and take plenty of water with you.
