Important

Visits to the camp are only permitted with authorized guides, not external ones. Your reservation will be confirmed once the camp assigns a guide, which will happen by 3 pm the day before your visit.
All operators need a minimum group to be able to access the camp with a guide, so sometimes, in case the minimum group is not reached, the activity could be cancelled or rescheduled.
On our side, tickets, and guide are locked in as soon as the minimum group is reached, but in case of last minute bookings, there might not be guides available, and the activity might be cancelled.
Tickets are nominative, and only one change per reservation is allowed. This change can affect no more than 10% of the participants.
