Get rare access to the pathless backcountry of Denali with this weeklong epic. Rolling tundra, sprawling glaciers, and the tallest peaks in North America will surround you on this immersive wilderness adventure, plus more wildlife than you can shake a stick at (and you’d want a pretty big stick). This trip drops you in the floatplane-access-only Whale’s Tail between Ruth and Tokositna Glaciers, where very few hikers ever get to go.

- Hard; long days of hiking above 10,000 feet
- December 20-January 5 and March 17-April 2
From boutique hotels in the ancient city of Kathmandu to tents crowned by flapping prayer flags beneath the world’s tallest mountain, this trek will bring you a bit of everything Nepal has to offer.

There isn’t a hiker out there who hasn’t dreamed of Patagonia. Take that trek out of your daydreams and into the real world while ditching the crowds at Torres Del Paine for the glacial peaks and bright blue lakes of Cerro Castillo National Reserve and the newly-established Patagonia National Park. Finish your trip with a day of whitewater rafting on the Rio Baker and a classic Patagonian barbeque.
