Himalaya expedition
12 day journey
30 September - 12 October
Himalaya Expedition - Kathmandu
Explore the highest mountain range on the planet. Travel over snow and stone covered mountains, through forest and jungle back to safety. You will learn new survival skills which enable you to navigate through this enormous landscape and sleep in self-made shelters.
The Himalayan expedition starts with a helicopter dropping at 4.000 meters. (13.000 feet)
You will be dropped in the middle of the wild at an unknown location on top of a mountain. As part of the escape the wild series, you will need to find your way out towards civilization. In this journey, you will experience all the types of terrain and the required skills to survive here.
In order to move across the mountains and through the jungle, we will need to work together. We will escape oxygen deprivation, we will sleep in self-made shelters, we will start our fire with basic tools, and we will be purifying water for drinking and eating.
To find our way out through the mountains and the jungle, we will teach you how to navigate and safely move through this majestic environment. Once we reach destination X we can escape back to civilization.
Before and after our Himalayan expedition we will have all the comfort we need in our luxury hotel with a restaurant, wellness and astonishing views.
