i (21F) have lots of questions lol. i love hiking and am incredibly active/adventurous. i research and am majoring in wildlife science. also, i am a cave diver that goes diving multiple times a week. im saying all this to give my insight into athletic, outdoors, and mental capabilities.
anyways, i’m traveling to france in july and would love to hike the pyrenees. i’m not sure if im experienced enough to do this hike completely solo, as i have only done day hikes. also, i already feel weary hiking alone at home as a young woman, so doing that in a country where i don’t speak the language is undesirable.
i would wanna book a guided hike with a company for guidance and safety. does anyone have experience or advice on what i should do? this company says that this is a “self-guided tour” and i’m unsure as to what that means. would be doing it on my own and they just give me an itinerary??
*sorry for all the background context and potentially silly questions, i just want to be extremely well informed on what i’m getting myself into to remain safe :)* #activity #hiking source
