Highly recommended.
We booked this private walk from the UK on friends' advice. It's a walk over varied terrain, some 4wd track and then river crossings and gorge. Well set out, good waymarking, and you are rewarded with great views. The shepherds huts are equipped, and Jo carries your pack from hut to hut - so you can take proper food and wine. She looks after you really well, UHF radios to keep in touch and check the weather, and the treats are very welcome.
