While you're in the region
Is this a good one?
- Against others of its kind
- At $129 a day this sits a little under the $140 median for traditional & survival. It is cheaper than 6 of the 10 traditional & survival options mapped here.
- When to go
- Workable across 2 months of the year — Sep-Oct. Outside that the season is against you, not the school.
- How long it really takes
- Most people give it 14 days, but the honest range is 7 to 30. That spread is wide because how far you take it is up to you.
