This is interesting, cause we have the same situation with tourists in Norway underestimating the wilderness. Last few years the stone formation “Trolltunga” has been pretty popular among tourists, but what the Instagram posts doesn’t tell you is that it is a 8 hour hike on regular old paths up a mountain. We’ve seen tourists walking in flip-flops, with no water, no food, starting too late in the day or too early in the season when there’s still snow large parts of the way and so on. The voluntary search and rescue team had a few pretty rough years.
Perhaps the issue is that tourists in general are very unprepared for other countries wilderness?
