CHEWINGS TREK PACKAGES
TM
The Chewings Trek is a top tier 4-6 day trek covering some of the very best sections and locations of the Larapinta Trail. Though the trek covers only three sections (4-5) and can be done in 2 days, a vast portion of hikers will split these sections into two days to fully maximise on the experience over a 3-4 day period.
