We will have the whole day to reach our next remote camp. The distances between camps are all between 5 and 10 kilometres and you will be required to carry your own gear and some food. We will encounter many animals along the way. However this is a hiking trail exploring off the track nature that Mana has to offer. There is no end to the incredible things you can see and do in this animal-rich environment. This trip is suited to physically fit guests who want to see the more remote side of the park.
