Alpine trek
August 18
This trek with Jim Thorne is for photographers who wish to capture dramatic landscapes. It will also interest those into birds (bring a telephoto lens with good ‘reach’), wildflowers & other plants (a macro lens can be useful if you own one). The terrain near the summit is cloaked in heather and dwarf alpine forest & is generally easy to walk over, and there is a road to follow if you wish.
Sturdy footwear is recommended (though you don’t need to have heavy-duty boots), as is a water and windproof Gore-Tex type jacket. Bring a lunch and bug spray. This location is worthwhile even if the weather is less than perfect.
