At Primalscapes, we promote self-contained expedition-style trekking and wild camping — that is, team members carry tents and food rations with them. That enables us to get to incredible primal landscapes which are normally out of reach of the crowds sticking to groomed trails, comfortable huts and motorized transport.
We combine pre-placed food depots, ultralight premium-quality freeze-dried rations, optional porter services and sometimes even pack animals — all in order to keep pack weights manageable for an average healthy person and to let you enjoy the trekking experience. Our guides do the cooking and readily help you with pitching the tent — so don’t hesitate to join us even if you have never been on a trekking expedition before!
