How It Works
Each trek is unique in length and location with a primary focus on active on-site hiking, though our entire Stillpoint process extends far beyond the trek itself.
Initial Consultation
We want to learn more about you, understand your interest in Transformative Trekking, and hear about your goals.
Virtual Group Sessions
Leading up to the trek, you will participate in virtual group meetings with the entire cohort of trekkers—usually just 3–4 people.
Fitness Requirement
Our team provides each trekker with fitness prep resources to ensure you’re ready to conquer the trail ahead.
