Hengilssvæðið er náttúruperla og það þarf að ganga um það sem slíkt. Þyrluhjólaferð er einstök upplifun og það er ógleymanlegt að fljúga yfir Hengilinn og sjá hann frá algjörlega nýju sjónarhorni. Að horfa á stíga sem þú hjólar niður skömmu síðar. Hengill hentar ekki byrjendum á fjallahjóli, við mælum með að byrja til dæmis í Heiðmörk, fara svo Jaðar og því næst að hjóla í Hengli.
