The jeep "Willis" drop you at the bottom of the valley.

If you do take 30mins or 45mins horse ride, they do walk the horses faster to catch up on time.

Hey thanks for the question. I was in salento for 6 day and there were days it was rain off and on, and there were days it would rain for a good half a day. Either way your trekking through mud. Some of my friends and I were just covered in mud, but it was still 100% worth it. Bring a good pair of hiking boots for traction but be mindful they will be covered in mud. I hope this helps.
