Accommodations:
The overnights alternate between mountain guesthouses and hotels in the valley towns. The guesthouses are very comfortable, offer the ability to shower, and provide great food and drinks. The first two nights and the fourth night are in guesthouses, deep in the valleys. They aren't exactly roughing it, and are incredible places to start and end the day.
Nights in town give you more flexibility with your food and even indulge in some wellness if you choose.
