Each tour naturally has its own requirements, which you can find under the individual tour descriptions.
We have described the specific requirements there again according to the following scaling:
Technology:
1 = sure-footedness on easy paths and in easy walking terrain
2 = sure-footedness, including passages without paths and in snow; no fear of heights
3 = sure-footedness without paths, also in snow; no fear of heights required
4 = easy climbing sections and rocky passages to be mastered; very sure-footedness without paths as well as in snow and ice; no fear of heights required
5 = Walking in high alpine terrain with technical equipment; absolute surefootedness, no fear of heights and technical ability required
Condition:
1 = easy trekking tour Walking time: 2-5 hours / altitude difference up to 500 meters per day
2 = demanding trekking tour Walking time: 4-8 hours / altitude difference up to 1000 meters per day
3 = moderately difficult trekking tour Walking time: 6-10 hours / elevation gain up to 1300 meters per day
4 = difficult trekking tour Walking time: 6-10 hours / altitude difference up to 1500 meters per day
5 = very difficult trekking tour / summit ascents: 6-13 hours / altitude difference up to 2000 meters per day
We offer tours for trekking beginners, advanced trekkers and experts. There is something for every level of difficulty. If you have any questions or doubts, just give us a call. We are happy to advise you.
In Nepal, for example, the Mardi Himal Trek and the Langtang Tour are suitable for trekking beginners and are very attractive for getting to know the country and its people. The long Dolpo tour “In the realm of the snow leopard” is our king tour and a pure tent trekking in very remote areas, with long stages at higher altitudes, which require fitness and experience, but also brings a lot of self-awareness for you.
All tours are designed in such a way that there is enough time for good altitude acclimatization, which is crucial for success on a trekking tour. A Kilimanjaro ascent without acclimatization on Mt. You won’t find Meru here. We want to enable you to achieve the greatest possible summit success.
You can also decide for yourself whether you want to climb the high panoramic peaks depending on your fitness and condition.
On our trekking tours, we mainly use hiking trails that do not pose any particular challenges under normal weather conditions. If the weather changes, however, even an easy trail can very quickly become a strenuous challenge. Some of the tours also lead along unpaved and stony paths that require surefootedness.
It makes a difference whether you hike on the flat or uphill.
You should therefore prepare yourself well for every trek.
