    Wildlife photography can be physically demanding. It may include extreme terrain, long hikes at high altitude, damp forests with uneven roots, sandy beaches that sink beneath your boots, deep snow, and frigid temperatures, or boats swaying under your feet while your lens tracks a moving animal. Conditions may vary by destination, or even by day. This is why participants must be in good general physical condition and health.

    You must be able to walk for multiple hours and carry your own camera gear. There are no exceptions to these physical requirements.

    All trips may not be suitable for every traveler. If you have questions about the physical requirements of this trip, contact Stan at stan@naturesmart.com.
