HIKING
Hiking is less intense than hang gliding or rock climbing , but can still be just as physically challenging , depending on which trail you are choosing to hike . Hiking classes range from 1-3 , with 3 being intense , strenuous hiking that includes climbing over steep cliffs and broad hills , along with coming into contact with brush and other extreme terrain . This class of hiking will require some additional equipment . Classes 1 and 2 are less committed . You may have to scramble a bit in class 2 , but the first class consists of well-established trails , and lots of time to take pictures and stop to enjoy the scenery .
