The Crosscut
walk only operates during the summer months, from January to
March each year. During this period Alpine daytime temperatures
range from 10 to 25 degrees Celsius with cool to cold nights, an
ideal temperature range for walking. During this period the
weather pattern is at its most stable, however the weather in
the mountains is unpredictable and can change rapidly, with rain
and thunderstorm activity and occasionally snow, rapidly taking
the temperature to zero and below. The experience can be exhilarating,
however, The Crosscut walk traverses remote wilderness areas
which are relatively inaccessible and walkers must be prepared
for all conditions. While for 90% of the summer, shorts, tea
shirts, sun hats and sun screen are the normal walking attire,
Stirling Experience do require all participants to strictly
adhere to the Personal
Equipment List. Items on that list marked as compulsory
must be carried by all walkers as a condition of participation
and these items will be checked prior to departure. If you are
unable to access suitable equipment we do offer a hire service
but it would be appreciated if you could notify us of the items
you require and your size, seven days prior to departure. Please
view the list of supplementary hiking hire equipment on our Booking
Form and ensure
that your requirements are forwarded at the time of
booking. |
