17 mi (27.5 km) / 800m ascent / Strenuous (4 paws)
Link - HIKE GRADINGS EXPLAINED
Link - TRAIL PHOTOS
An ancient path long buried – a sunken track clawed deep into the earth, choked with roots and silence. They call it ‘The Hollow Way Haunt’, a place where the soil never dries, footsteps echo too long, shadows whisper, and the air turns deathly cold. Locals say the earth here remembers…every step, every scream, every soul it’s claimed.
No one walks it now.
Trek if you dare – but whatever you do, NEVER… WALK… ALONE.
Also advertised here: TUKI TIGER ADVENTURES (See full attendees).
