From the first click to standing there in person.
You get in touch
Book directly if you know what you want, or call and we'll find the right step together. It costs nothing to ask.
You book a spot
Booking fee 20 % of the trip price. The rest is paid 60 days before departure. Free cancellation until then.
You get the materials
Packing list, training plan adapted to the trip, and the guide's direct number. Call whenever you want, about whatever you want.
We meet digitally
Two weeks before departure the whole group meets over video. You know who you're going with before you meet in person.
We go
The guide meets you on site and stays the whole way. From then on, you just walk.
The boring part, on the table.
Most operators hide this at the bottom of a terms page. We think it belongs where you actually make the decision.
- You don't pay it all upfront
- 20 % at booking, the rest only 60 days before departure. You never commit the full sum long in advance.
- Limited number of spots
- The groups are small and the spots are limited. We never add one more just to fill a bus.
- Free cancellation until 60 days before
- After that a scale stated in plain text in the booking terms, not in fine print.
- We turn back if we have to
- If the weather turns, we change the plan. None of our guides get a bonus for reaching the top.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need my own equipment?
No. For step 1 and 2, good shoes, clothes for the weather and a backpack are enough, you get a packing list once you've booked. Technical gear like harness, crampons, ice axe and avalanche equipment is always included.
How do I know which step I'm at?
Call us, it takes five minutes. We ask what you've done before and how you train, and tell you straight which trip fits. Sometimes the answer is "go easier this year."
Can I go alone?
Yes. The groups are small and you meet digitally before departure, so you're not a stranger for long. Shared room is included in the price, if you want your own room say so at booking, and you'll get the price before you decide.
How do I pay?
20 % at booking, the rest no later than 60 days before departure. Invoice or card. If you're paying for a group, we can split it across several invoices.
What happens if I get injured or sick?
Free cancellation until 60 days before departure. After that you need cancellation cover, it's included in most travel insurance and some cards. We help you check yours before you book.
Is there an age limit?
18 years on your own. From 15 years accompanied by an adult on step 1 and 2. On expeditions 18 years applies with no exceptions.
How many will we be in the group?
Max eight, and on technical trips max four. We start a trip from four participants, if fewer we offer a new date or your money back.
What happens if the trip is cancelled?
You choose between a new date and a full refund. We notify you no later than 45 days before departure, except for weather we cannot foresee.
We don't go up because we promised to.
We go up when the day allows it. If it doesn't work out we do something else, and you get to know why.Make memories. Change your life.
Something still unclear?
Call and we'll sort it out. It's free and rarely takes more than five minutes.
