Hike; arduous journey (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trek

This clue is a double definition.

'hike' is the first definition.
(trekking is a kind of hiking)

'arduous journey' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for trek that I've seen before include "Slog" , "Footslog" , "A long arduous walk" , "A long hard march" , "Long hard journey on foot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
