5 Friend and I hiked through 40ish km of the Western Uplands hike in August of 2024! This was my first time planning a hiking trip and I wanted to document my experience.

Route

We stayed at the following campsites:

• Islet 2
• Tern 2
• Ishkuday 1

Overall, the route was good! Most of the campsites were fine, but I wouldn’t recommend Ishkuday 1. The other campsites had easy water access but at Ishkuday, it was past a bog. There were some planks to stand on but its not very secure and I fell in! Eventually, I just stripped and then made many trips in and out of the bog. As funny as a story as it was, I wouldn’t stay at that one again.
