We believe our treks are more than just a getaway — they’re exciting adventures that challenge you both physically and mentally. While vacations have their place, our treks are all about stepping outside your comfort zone and embracing the journey. To make sure you get the most out of your experience, we need your help in preparing for and participating in the adventure. Here’s how you can do your part:

Prepare Ahead of Time: Read all the materials we send you before departure. This info is your guide to being ready!

Train Like a Pro: Get an accountability partner and commit to your training well before the trek. A few squats two weeks out won’t cut it! (Check out the “Training” tab for tips.)

Get to Know Your Gear: Practice adjusting your backpack, filtering water, and using your equipment so you’re comfortable before heading out. And if you’re getting new boots, break them in well ahead of time.

Listen to Your Guide: Your guide’s top priority is your safety and success. Follow their advice on pacing, eating, resting, and other trek essentials — even when it means slowing down or turning back for your health.

Show Respect: Treat your guide and locals with the utmost respect. We’re guests in their country, and their kindness makes our adventure possible.

With these steps, you’ll not only ensure your safety but also make the most of this incredible experience. Adventure is a partnership, and by coming prepared and ready to engage fully, you’ll help create memories that will last a lifetime. Let’s make this journey extraordinary together!

After signing up for a trek, we’ll reach out to you within a few days to say hello and answer any questions you may have. This initial connection is our way of making sure you feel informed and supported as you prepare for your adventure.

Shortly after your trek is confirmed, you’ll receive a special Adventure Pack from us. Inside, you’ll find carefully chosen items to help you train and gear up for your journey, along with a few surprises to build the excitement for what’s ahead. Opening it is just the beginning of your adventure!

As your departure date approaches, we’ll provide updates and more details to ensure you’re ready. And remember, we’re always just a message away if you need assistance or have questions along the way!

Our treks are designed to be thrilling, active adventures — not just vacations with a bit of walking. To fully enjoy the journey, it’s essential to reach a good level of fitness before you depart. These are experiences where you’ll be on your feet for hours each day, navigating rugged trails and tackling challenging inclines. The better prepared you are, the more you’ll enjoy every moment!

Here’s the key: train like you’re already on the trek. Expecting a 10-mile day? Start tackling 10-mile hikes at home — and repeat! Anticipating back-to-back hiking days? Get out on consecutive days to build stamina. Practice now so your body and mind are ready for the adventure. When the trip comes, muscle memory will kick in, and you’ll feel confident and capable.

Remember, the more you put into preparation, the more rewarding and enjoyable your trek will be. If you need guidance or tips on training, we’re here to help — just give us a call or send us an email! Let’s get you adventure-ready!
