Trekking with Higher Than Everest
Trekking, backpacking, hiking, hill walking or tramping (if you are in Kiwi Land) are all synonymous activities where you carry a backpack and walk along an outdoor nature trail. It is a rejuvenating activity that not only gets you fitter and happier but also lets you experience nature at its finest and wildest. Needless to add such an activity needs some sort of preparation from your side. We will guide you in your preparation stage right from the beginning to ensure you are at your peak performance level when you begin your adventure. As long as we value and respect nature and understand her signs, we would be safe. But even the slightest mistake can prove disastrous in the outdoors. That’s where we step in to ensure that you accomplish your outdoor dreams in a beautiful, pristine, rugged landscape yet be safe and return home to your families and friends to regale them with your pictures and stories. You make a wish and we take care of all the details, logistics planning, resources, etc to make your wish come true.
We offer single and multi-day treks of different grades, from easy, which can be undertaken by anyone of any age or gender with little preparation, to hard, which are meant for experienced and physically fit trekkers.

Samothrace Trek
Ancient mythology and civilizations has left its mark upon the mesmerizing landscape from endless beaches to deep forests, lofty mountains that wear the white shroud during winter, cascading gorges, whistling springs, breathtaking waterfalls and the cuisines play the perfect symphony of adventure. Come to Samothrace and fall in love with life once again.
Everest Base Camp
Have you ever aspired to walk beneath the shadows of Everest, the world’s highest peak and to gaze at early morning sun bathing the summit in its golden glow! We have you covered in our Everest Base Camp trek. A 14 days odyssey that will leave you completely in awe and breathless for more reasons than lack of oxygen.
Ruwenzori Trek
Our trek in Uganda’s Ruwenzori Mountains is a completely out of this world experience. It’s no wonder that the first Greek explorer to discover these mountains called it the mountains from the moon. We also call them the pearl mountains because they sparkle like pearls under the full moon.
Climbing Kilimanjaro
(Highest summit of Africa) is sure to be in the bucket list of all of you. It is more of a trek as it doesn’t need any technical training or equipment but top physical condition. We offer a fully guided trek to the top of Africa. Many of world’s seven summit achievers started with Kilimanjaro as their first of the seven summits.
Huayhuash Trek
Cordillera Huayhuash circuit, is one of our top ten treks in the world, and according to Satya, an absolute must-do. Peruvian Andes is unparalleled in its sheer rugged beauty and nature at its most wild. This ten days circuit covers it all. It takes us around some of the world’s most difficult mountains to climb, through lagoons, local villages and glaciers.
Salkantay Trek
Who hasn’t heard of the Inca ruins of Machu Picchu? It is one of the most visited sites in all of Latin America. Out of many ways to get there, our favorite is the five day Salkantay trek route. You would cross remote villages and foraging lamas en route besides gazing at the majestic Salkantay peak.
Three Passes Trek
If you wish to do something even more challenging in the Everest region than the EBC trek then we have the three passes trek for you. This trek entails crossing several glaciers and surmounting three 5000m plus passes.
Annapurna Circuit & Annapurna Base Camp Trek
Our round Annapurna circuit and Annapurna Base Camp trek, takes you up close to the world’s tenth highest peak in the world, which is also referred as the most dangerous mountain on Earth due to the number of climbers who have perished upon it.
Treks in India
There are so many treks across the Great and Lesser Himalayan axis, that even ten lifetimes is not enough to cover even half of them. We run programs that combine treks and local culture experiences through home stays, etc primarily in Ladakh and Himachal Pradesh.
Transylvania Treks
The Carpathian Mountains in Romania offer the best of Transylvanian nature and there are numerous trails through the Fagaras, Retezat, Apuseni, Parang and Piatra Craiului Mountains that are any hiker’s dream come true.
Mythikas on Olympus
The highest peak of Greece, is seeped into mythology and amazing views. In the summers it is a moderate challenge but in the winters it is a serious ice climbing adventure.
Via Dinarica Trek
Despite being one of Europe’s longest hiking trails Via Dinarica is still little known. Crossing through several countries like Slovenina, Serbia, Croatia, Kosovo, Montenegro, Bosnia and Albania it roughly covers 1260km. The trail in most parts is moderate with strenuous and difficult sections. It took us nearly two months to do this trail in its entirety and our favorite sections are the ones through Croatia, Kosovo, Bosnia and Albania. Besides the spectacular landscapes, Via Dinarica introduces us to the finest culture, people and cuisines of the western Balkan region.
