High-altitude roads, treks and expeditions for people who would rather arrive tired than rested.
Adventure departures cover the trips where getting there is the point — Himalayan road expeditions, high-pass crossings, and multi-day treks. These run at altitude and in weather, so they are planned around acclimatisation days and realistic daily distances rather than the shortest possible itinerary.
Fitness expectations are stated on each trip page. Most departures need no technical experience, but they do assume you can walk several hours a day at altitude. Trip captains on these routes are chosen for route experience, not just group management.
Equipment, permits and backup transport are arranged as part of the trip. Where a route has a genuine bail-out point, it is built into the plan.
