We recommend that you have insurance covering helicopter evacuation if necessary. Keep in mind that some travel
insurance companies require you to pay for supplementary ‘adventure sports rider' insurance to cover trekking.
Many treks take place in remote places that are inaccessible to vehicles. While we do everything possible

accidents do happen and people react differently to altitude. In the case of altitude sickness, the only guaranteed
cure is to descend to lower elevation immediately. Below are a couple options for reasonably priced trip and medical
insurance:
