The Alta Via I was a big goal for me, and the trip was everything I hoped for and more. The trip guide kept me thinking positively when I was struggling, and the astounding beauty kept me inspired as well. We encountered every type of weather possible, but these incredible mountains were worth every minute.

Outstanding! Our guide had a great personality, patient, attentive to all participants, knowledgeable, quick and efficient to make a new plan due to our weather disruptions. I also want to thank Byron (in the office) for helping to alter our route and make new accommodations due to the snow storm.

Jaw-dropping scenery; ups and downs to awaken your inner athlete; camaraderie with other hikers from around the world; superb leadership from our kind, knowledgeable, certified-mountain-man guide Mark; food, flowers, wildlife, conversation… all of it: FANTASTIC. It was the best possible experience for our 4-person family. Additionally, when one of us had an injury to deal with, the mothership kept in constant contact with us and made all the arrangements necessary to get said person down the mountain (and up again). First class, professional, experienced operation. Bravo!

The trip was absolutely incredible! The terrain was challenging and required preparation (don’t do the TMB without training), and it was completely worth it.The views were the most amazing views I’ve ever seen. Trekking through the TMB really brought our group together, creating strong bonds along the way. Lindsay was an outstanding leader, always ensuring our safety while making sure we had an amazing time. Her connections with the locals, including an unforgettable visit to a place with “fighting cows,” added a unique and fun element to the trek. Both Lindsay and Julia went above and beyond to ensure our group of 10 had the best experience possible. I can’t recommend Tracks and Trails enough for the TMB or any other adventure—they truly deliver an unforgettable experience!
