Many of our treks are ideal for school groups and we are able to customize any itinerary to meet any specific aims and objectives that a school may have. We are in the fortunate position of having close links with many organisations throughout Nepal who would benefit greatly from any form of help from a school group undertaking a project.
We are fully aware of the responsibilities that both the school and teachers have with a foreign trip and we focus at the highest level on the health and safety aspect of our school programmes, especially as we will be in an outdoor environment and often in remote areas. Our UK guides and leaders all have a lifetime experience of guiding and leading groups in the mountain environment. Our staff have well honed people skills and are capable of dealing with all ages and abilities to deliver a high level of exciting, stimulating and powerful learning experiences. Additionally, they have expertise in risk assessing at every level and you can be sure that you will be in the safest of hands for any of our treks. We are also willing to visit you for initial planning meetings and discussions. As we are a UK based company, we also offer pre departure training weekends to get the groups fit and knowlegable of all aspects of the trek. A trek for a school group offers the exposure to new and stimulating environments and provides a valuable out-of-classroom learning experience as well as highlighting specific areas of the curriculum, e.g. Geography, Humanities and Religious Studies. It can also provide the opportunity for a specific case study. There is really no limit to the itineraries that a school group can undertake providing the group is well briefed and when necessary undergoes a certain amount of training and assessment. The reaction from our school groups is consistently positive, enthusiastic and always very rewarding, in terms of unforgettable experiences.
If you have ideas on a particular destination within Nepal we will be happy to provide you with a suitable itinerary.
Alternatively, if the concept of a trekking programme appeals to you without having a particular destination in mind, just call our office and we will be pleased to recommend itineraries that are particularly suited to your group’s interests, aspirations, abilities and the time duration available
