Himalaya and mountaineering are inseparable. Whole generations of mountaineers have attempted to ascend the world’s highest peaks. Many achieved spectacular successes while others have failed – yet they have all been captivated by the magic of the Himalaya’s incomparable environment. Too unique is the combination of ancient cultures in remote valleys that need to be crossed and the enormous challenge of high-altitude mountaineering. These mountains demand climber’s best preparation, full physical and mental strength.
It is no wonder that still many, mostly technically challenging peaks have till date not been scaled and await their challengers. Besides the nature of the mountain itself more obstacles await the climber. The travel to the starting point of the expedition is often lengthy and strenuous followed by tiring trekking to the base camp and demand excellent logistics in order to provide the required material. Many peaks are located in the border-area between Tibet/China and are within zones controlled by the military. Special permits are required and generally in Himalayan lands lengthy bureaucracy is almost as feared as a sudden storm.
With our local contacts and connections we organize the complete logistics for your expedition, from jeeps to Sherpas and local mountaineers. Even the challenging bureaucratic hurdles can be overcome by us – we take care of your permits and the time-consuming office-work so that you can concentrate fully on the mountain.
Obviously with these kinds of undertakings if you want to take a group to a mountain as a group-leader we insist on a state-approved mountaineering licence. If you plan an individual climb you should possess profound experience in technical mountaineering. It is self-evident that for expeditions & mountaineering, safety is our most important criteria. |
