We will arrange for you to share accommodation with another traveller of the same sex and if we cannot match you up we will provide a single room (or tent if applicable) at no extra charge. If you prefer not to share, a single supplement is payable to guarantee your own room (or tent if applicable) pending availability. Please refer to our website for the additional cost.Our 3 nights in the Walls of Jerusalem National Park are spent at Wild Dog Creek base camp. Situated at the foothills of the area's highest mountain, King David’s Peak (1499m), we set up our tents on elevated wooden platforms. A permanent kitchen and dining platform provide rustic shelter from the elements and a panoramic spot to enjoy a hot drink, a chat about the day’s events and a hearty evening meal together. A composting toilet and fresh drinking/washing water is located close by.
We provide strong, twin-share bushwalking tents, which give each occupant a personal access door and storage vestibule for individual use. Our tents weigh between 2.5 and 3.2kg and this weight is shared equally by each occupant. We use a range of high quality 3-4 season tents which have been trialled and tested to withstand all weather conditions that may be encountered on our adventures. Brands that are most commonly used are Wilderness Equipment and One Planet.
