Adventure Travel and Outdoors

Longer and harder trips: multi-day treks, high passes, expedition cruises, sea kayak crossings and via ferrata routes. Each guide gives distance, ascent, grade, the passable months, guide fees and the fitness a route assumes. Written for travelers picking an objective they will train for rather than book on impulse.

Expedition-grade trips broken down by distance, elevation gain, technical difficulty and the weeks each route stays genuinely passable, plus guide fees.
