Questions before you go
Booking a trip
How fit do I need to be?
Every trip has a difficulty. Easy means up to four hours of walking or paddling a day on good paths. Moderate means five to six hours with some climbs. Challenging means long days, steep ground and weather to match. If you are unsure, ask us and we will be honest.
How big are the groups?
Never more than twelve, and most trips run with six to ten people. Small groups mean we can stay in family-run huts and change plans when the weather does.
On the trip
Do I need to buy special kit?
No. Tents, stoves, kayaks, snowshoes and paddling kit are included where a trip needs them, and you can hire boots and waterproofs from us at the start.
What happens if the weather turns?
Your guide has a plan B for every day, and a plan C for most. Safety comes first, and the most memorable days are often the ones that did not go to plan.
