“The first time I hiked the W Trek I was in my 20s with my boyfriend. The second time I went with my dad, and it wasn’t until the third time that I went by myself. It’s fun because there are so many other people on the W Trail that you never really feel alone. Then at night you have the refugios which make it very easy too, and mean you don’t have to carry all the equipment.”
