“So many people train for marathons, triathlons, and other sports events but hardly anyone actually trains for a strenuous hiking trip. You know, those steep climbs, uneven trails, and carrying a 15-kilo pack for days on end.
That has always amazed me.
Over the years, I’ve seen the impact of showing up unprepared, injuries that set people back for months, or hikes that turn into a struggle instead of something to enjoy. I’ve made those same mistakes myself, which is exactly why I spent the last five years creating a program that helps people get hiking fit, feel strong, safe, and confident out there, with the support of a hiking crew.
While it prepares you for adventure, this program is about far more than training. It’s about reconnecting, with nature, with others, and with yourself. It’s about exploring the outdoors that surrounds us, creating healthy habits, making time to move and breathe, and improving your mental wellbeing. Over the weeks, it becomes a lifestyle shift, bringing more balance and activity into your everyday life. And the best part? The people you meet along the way. Through shared effort and memorable moments, genuine connections form, often lasting long beyond the program.
An you know what? Hiking doesn’t require any special skills, if you can walk, you can hike. It’s just about getting your body hiking fit so you can take on any mountain and actually enjoy the journey!”
