This is an authentic wilderness experience in the expert hands of our specialist bison ranger. It is an immersive, interactive experience where you are encouraged to ask questions, give opinions and share experiences. The walking pace is gentle with frequent stops. You will need a reasonable level of fitness and be able to cope with walking on uneven ground.
