Frequently Asked Questions

I love my walking, but what’s the big deal about going trekking? Why is it different?

It’s about the journey, the steady progression through mountains, the managing on very little, the planning, the cutting of unnecessary weight, the shedding of excess baggage. It’s about the time to spend with people that may not be possible during a busy life, the chance to be alone with your thoughts that may also be just as impossible. It’s about the mountain, the scenery, savagery. It’s about the wildlife and flowers. It’s about the mountain people, culture, experiences of the early explorers and pioneers. It’s about self-sufficiency, planning the route and coming through in good order, its about the clean air and time. It’s about friends and loved ones, long evenings to plan and talk, new people, new faces. It’s about the photos, the memories, the plans for the next trip. It’s about you. It’s about God. It’s about life. It’s about the journey.
