8,000 m / 26,246 ft (vertical..,) the new challenge for marathon runners and other endurance sports. We come across all kinds of people adventuring into the mountains. Most people have the ability to trek in the mountains. When it comes to climbing and specially at high altitudes, there is a bit more training, preparation and risk. In the article below, we look at the similarities and differences between climbing an 8,000m peak and running a marathon. Many people think climbing 8,000m peaks or other peaks is just for elite climbers. Many people can achieve these climbs and treks with good preparation, having knowledge about the terrain, weather, altitude, using the correct gear and equipment, and of course having the right team to bring you into the mountains.

Hola a todos, climbing 4 dormant volcanos in Mexico is perfect for people who want to test themselves physically. There is no climbing experience necessary for this amazing itinerary but as always people need to plan, prepare properly to be safe and enjoy the mountains. Climb the highest mountain in Mexico Pico de Orizaba (5,636 m / 18,491 ft) and 3rd highest mountain in North America.

Gokyo Valley and the 3 high passes is an excellent trek and a great alternative to the normal Everest Base camp trail. Not only do you adventure through some amazing valleys, you get extra acclimatisation while spending more time in high altitude going over the passes. You can choose the clockwise route, Renjo La Pass (5,464 m / 17,925 ft) - Cho La Pass (5,420 m / 17,782 ft) - Kongma La Pass (5,535 m / 18,159 ft) or the anti-clockwise route. Although this trek is more challenging than your normal Everest Base camp trek, the effort is well worth it, with breathtaking views of Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Cholatse, Ama Dablam and other great Himalayan peaks. Stay in Gokyo village 4,750 m / 15 584 ft (one of the highest settlements in Nepal and the world) and trek up Gokyo Ri for sunset or sunrise.
Choose which route you would like to do, start training and get in touch to book you place. For more information on our Everest Base camp and 3 passes trek, have a look at the link below.
See you in the mountains.

15 years ago I met Adam King in 53 Degrees North while I was planning, preparing, and organising a trip to the Himalayas and Mont Blanc with a group of clients. Adam and the staff at 53 Degrees North were very helpful, accommodating and generous with a gear evening in the shop. They have great knowledge about the mountain equipment our clients should be taking to the mountains, and when and how to use the equipment. Having the right gear and knowing how and when to use it can be the difference between having a great trek or climb and having a disastrous trip. Last month, while Furtemba Sherpa and myself were touring around Ireland, Adam and the staff at 53 degrees North invited us to present in both their Dublin and Cork stores. Thank you for all your advice, support and looking after our clients' gear needs over the years. Hope to see you in the mountains soon.

The summit of Kilimanjaro (5,895 m / 19,341 ft), Uhuru Peak, roof of Africa in Tanzania. Most routes converge at Barafu camp (4,673 m / 15,331 ft) before the summit push. Kilimanjaro is not technical but is a big challenge physically and mentally while going to such altitudes. Teamwork, Positive attitude, good planning and preparation, the right gear, some luck with weather, and many other factors, play a big part in the safety and success of any trek or climb. For more information on our options to climb Kilimanjaro get in touch today or have a look at our website.

We would like to give a special thank you to John Burke and all the staff at the Armada hotel for their generosity and amazing hospitality during the Ireland Expedition. John has been a great supporter of our various treks and climbs over the years. He climbed the technical Ama Dablam with Furtemba and myself in 2015 and Everest with us in 2017. Not only has John achieved great things in the mountains but last week the Armada hotel got 1st place across all categories of Irish hotels for sustainability, 2nd place out of Irelands 4 star hotels and 3rd place in Irish hotels for casual dining for the Ocean bar. Congratulations John and all the staff in the Armada. A huge achievement and we are delighted for your success. Recently while the west of Ireland was getting hammered by storm Eowyn, he opened the doors to aid hundreds of people in Clare who were left without, water, electricity and other essentials. He has been involved in many charity projects both at home and abroad. A great friend and inspiration to me and many others. Keep up the amazing work in the Armada and your other projects. See you again soon in the big mountains.

Last Friday, Furtemba Sherpa and myself had the honour of presenting to a young group of Belvedere boys about our adventures around the world, including what we have learnt and what it takes to succeed in the mountains and others areas in life. I was lucky enough to go to Belvedere College. Not only did I get a great education there, the school gave me many opportunities in sports, arts, and is a great stepping stone for life ahead in any career paths people choose to follow. Thank you to Paul Bryce and Colin McCarthy for inviting us to present in the College.

Furtemba Sherpa and myself will be presenting my home city, Dublin on Monday 20th Jan at 6.30pm in 53 Degrees North, Carrickmines. Back when I was starting out trekking, climbing and organising mountain trips, we did some gear nights in 53 Degrees.

Thank you to Booleys in Galway for hosting us yesterday evening and to everyone who came along to our presentation. We have continued our journey to one of my favourite parts of Ireland, Connemara which has one of my favourite beaches in the world, glassilaun, and one of my favourite mountains in the world Mweelrea. I spent many days in my young childhood looking up, and hiking this mountain dreaming about climbing big mountains around the world. It was one of the mountains that inspired me to climb Mt Everest.

It was great to bring Furtemba Sherpa out to the mountains in Co. Wicklow to show him where I spent many of my young childhood years trekking and with my dad. We attended my dad’s hillwalking club, The Roving Soles, xmas party and the weather in the Irish mountains didn’t disappoint. My Dad, and members of the Roving Soles, Denis Gill, John Byrne, Martin Lyons and others were great mentors to me while helping me prepare and train for the Ireland to Everest Expedition over 10 years ago. In the 3rd photo on the right, you can see one of my favourite rock climbs in Wicklow, the Great Gully, which was one of the last climbs I did in Ireland. A amazing hiking club, people and lovely evening in the Glenmalure lodge where Furtemba served a pint of Guinness!
