Plan a group hiking trip where the trail crew earns the views and the rest still get a great day.
Hiking splits a group fast - the fit half wants the 1,200m ascent and the dawn start, and the rest don't want to be marched up a mountain on holiday. Manta plans it as one trip: big-day routes for the trail crew, gondola viewpoints, lake walks and long lunches for everyone else, all from one base and one plan.
Pick by region or by spot. Each place below has its own season, altitude and trailheads - add the ones that fit your crew's legs to a plan, and Manta sorts the routes, the easy alternatives and the budget.
Each links to its full destination guide - add any to a plan.
Alpine trails, Routeburn access and gondola viewpoints - big days for hikers, easy lakeside walks for the rest.
View guideSunrise volcano climbs and rice-terrace ridge walks - a Batur dawn hike, then pools and cafés for everyone after.
View guideSavannah ridge hikes to island viewpoints between boat days - short, sharp climbs with huge payoffs.
