Some advices to prepare your trip well

The Planning of a Trip

Before leaving for a trip to the desert or in the mountains, you should always take into account when planning your trip the following key factors to help you enjoy your stay.

Choose your trip well : Choose your route according to your fitness and your adaptability. We have classified our activities by difficulty levels which allow you to estimate the difficulty of the trek and the fitness level needed.
The recommended level of each circuit is shown in the specification sheet. For more information, please contact us.

Prepare Physically : For any trip, you should prepare yourself to the correct fitness and be in good health on the day of departure and during the expedition. The preparation must be adapted to the level of difficulty of the trip chosen. If you need to improve your levels of fitness, it is advisable to start this at least two months before the start date of the trip.

Please note that fitness levels and acclimatization to altitude are two independent phenomena; Being fit will help you to enjoy the trip but the level of fitness does not prevent altitude sickness, this is more dependent on acclimatization time as you ascend and cannot be rushed, so speed awareness is key.

Prepare psychologically : Travel adventures may include some unexpected events, so it is always advisable to accept the unexpected. These are often very real moments and remain unforgettable. The group travel requires your adaptability and positive attitude, the spirit of the team and a sense of humor are keys necessary to ensure a good atmosphere and the success of your stay.

Prepare your equipment well : Before leaving for a trip to the desert or in the mountains, you should always take into account the specific natural environments you are visiting and how this will affect what you take. Remember both the sun and often that the wind and cold can take you by surprise.
