Majorca / Mallorca: The Dry Stone Way Nature: This trek follows the best four days from Majorca’s long distance path listed as the GR221, Dry Stone Way, created from the old traders’ route along the island’s north coast and mountains. Experience / fitness level: Generally the days have us walking for around 8 hours and will require a reasonable level of hill fitness from you. Start / Finish: Palma Accommodation: The accommodation we use is comfortable but by no means ostentatious. On this trip we will be staying in refuges (refugio) – a sort of rustic and charming form of our youth hostels. These are basic but clean and comfortable.
Nature: One week in Morocco with a little over four days trekking in the High Atlas Mountains. On New Year’s Eve we make a summit attempt on North Africa’s highest mountain: Jebel Toubkal at 4167m. Experience / fitness level: Previous experience hill and mountain walking is essential. Generally easy days with one long day. Previous winter walking experience would be helpful though not essential since this trek includes a module on walking in crampons and ice axe arrests. Start / Finish: Marrakesh Accommodation: Hotels, gites, mountain lodges
Nepal, Annapurna Sanctuary, The Annapurna Base Camp Trek Nature: Nepal is arguably the capital for the world when it comes to trekking and walking holidays. This trek quickly gets us a little more remote than the usual honey-pots, bringing us to an amphitheatre of towering snow capped mountains at Annapurna Base Camp. Experience / fitness level: Perfect as a first trek, with most days taking around 6 or 7 hours to complete. Several days of 1000+ meters of ascent require hill-fit legs! Start / Finish: Kathmandu Accommodation: Hotels and tea-houses
Peru – Machu Picchu and the Ausangate Trek Nature: A remote trek within the mountains of southern Peru: awe and wonder ensue as we discover a landscape few others will even have heard of that is rich with spectacular scenery and local culture. You may think that Machu Picchu is the highlight of this holiday, but actually that will only be the prelude for this fantastic high altitude trek. Experience / fitness level: A committing trek that requires good hill legs. If you are happy to walk 15 miles across the hills of the Dark Peak District or a good day in the mountains of Snowdonia or the Lakes you’ll be good for this. Previous trekking experience could be useful. Start / Finish: Cusco, Peru Accommodation: Hotels, wild camping
Nature: This week sees us exploring the best of what Scotland could offer the thrill seeker looking to complete three iconic mountaineering / scrambles on Scotland’s West Coast. The highlight must be climbing Ben Nevis via an airy traverse of the infamous and brilliant Tower Ridge! Also included is a rest day and rock climbing day. Experience / fitness level: Previous scrambling and / or rock climbing experience is essential for this week of mountaineering. A good head for heights will help too! Basecamp: Kinlochleven Accommodation: Camping / YHA / B&B to suit (not included in price)
