Your day-by-day itinerary
Follow the route from your reporting point to the final descent. Camps and timings may change with mountain conditions.
01Day 1Arrival and programme orientation
Arrive at the confirmed Rumsu property and review the actual programme with the organisers. Discuss the session timetable, local walking plan, facilitators and accommodation arrangements before joining activities. The saved title previously referred to a clinical assessment, but clinical staffing and services have not been verified. Treat this as orientation unless the organisers provide qualified service details.

02Day 2Yoga and local walking programme
A yoga session and local forest walk are listed for this day. Confirm the facilitator, session duration and walking route on arrival, and choose participation according to your comfort. Allow time between activities instead of treating the programme as a demanding trek. No medical or recovery outcome is promised, and the actual day's plan depends on the organisers and conditions.
03Day 3Rumsu base sessions and walks
Continue with the confirmed base programme and local walks around Rumsu. Ask the organisers which activities are scheduled, how much walking is involved and whether you can opt for a shorter outing. Use the time between sessions to rest and enjoy the setting. This description does not establish individual therapy or a clinical treatment plan.
04Day 4Valley outing
The planned focus is a valley outing with a return to the Rumsu base. Confirm the destination, transport and expected walking before setting out, since these details have not been fixed in the listing. Carry your day essentials and follow the guide's local access instructions. The outing should be adapted to weather, road conditions and participant comfort.
05Day 5Base programme
Resume the base sessions according to the timetable confirmed by the organisers. Any discussion of progress should relate to your participation and experience rather than a promised health result. Ask which facilitator is leading each activity, take breaks as needed and confirm the following day's arrangements. The listing does not establish clinical monitoring or a treatment service.
06Day 6Closing activities
Use the final full programme day for the closing activities actually arranged at the base. Confirm whether there is a local walk, yoga session or group review and how much time each requires. Check your onward pickup and pack gradually for departure. Participation remains optional according to the confirmed programme and your comfort; no therapeutic outcome is guaranteed.
07Day 7Departure
Conclude the Rumsu stay and depart using the confirmed checkout and transfer instructions. Check your belongings, settle only the extra services you have agreed to, and obtain any travel update before leaving. Keep a buffer for mountain-road delays rather than relying on a tight onward connection. Confirm which meals and transfers are included on this final day.

- Eligibility

Carry the personal snacks advised in the briefing; special diets should not be assumed to be available at every stop.

- Do not depend on continuous mobile reception, campsite sockets or shops along the mountain stages. Carry refillable bottles and a charged power bank, keep travel details offline and ask the leader about the day's drinking-water refill arrangements.
