Scrambles Scrambles are non-designated trails or “peak bagging” via non-technical routes. Scrambling often involves walking on loose rock or scree. Experts will argue that scrambling is actually unprotected climbing, not hiking, as it involves the use of hands for balance. Scrambling is much more risky than hiking and it should not be attempted by the inexperienced. Sturdy hiking boots and proper outdoor gear are a must when attempting scrambles. Below are some “local favorites” that experienced hikers will find most rewarding. Estimated hiking times will depend on conditions, ability and the speed at which your party chooses to travel.
