Of course many of our trekking adventures will take you to superb summits such as Kilimanjaro and Toubkal in Africa, or peaks in the Pyrenees and Alps in Europe. Although often demanding, ascents of the mountains found amongst our trekking portfolio generally require you to carry no technical equipment (see individual trip dossiers/itineraries for full details.) However as soon as trip involves equipment such as crampons and climbing harnesses we describe it as a climbing trip. What can you expect to experience
on a KE Climbing trip? On our easier climbing trips you are likely to find yourself on easy angled snow slopes, although this may only be for one or two days as part of a longer trek and ascent across easier terrain. You may be roped together at times, eg crossing glaciers and you may ascend fixed ropes on shorter steeper sections. On our harder climbing trips longer days, often at very high altitudes, can be expected.The terrain may be crevassed and steep slopes and ridges are likely to be crossed. On such terrain your party will be split into smaller teams, each with their own guide or leader, often roped and moving together.
