How Slackpacking WOrks:
With slackpacking, you can leave most of your gear behind at the hostel that you wouldn't need for a day hike, so you can hike with a much lighter pack! You can borrow one of our day packs or use your own pack. Spend the first night at the hostel, hike during the day, then return to the hostel to stay another night in our comfortable beds! We'll return you to where you left off on the trail.
