Nepal Altitude Training Camp
31 December - 10 January 2009
We are going back!! Wrapped along the Himalaya mountain range, Nepal is a land of awe-inspiring scenery and some of the finest walking trails you'll ever come across. The concept behind this 10-day training camp is to introduce athletes to a stunning country of wonderful mountains and people, and the helpful effects of altitude training.
Nepal is a country fairly close to Singapore (5
hours flight), and with it's high elevations lends itself to
exercising in an oxygen-deprived environment. On this trip, we'll be
climbing gradually to an altitude of 4100m, reaching Annapurna Base Camp.

We won't be doing any running or cycling training on this trip, but seven full days of trekking. Despite the preceived low-intensity nature of walking, don't be fooled - because of altitude the exercise is quite strenuous and we promise you will return to civilization pretty fit. Our trail runs up through the Annapurna Sanctuary, with dramatic views of the mountain range (there are several peaks in this region above 7000m which surround us as we progress up the trail). |

previous 4 years - the winter version, where we can expect cold
temperatures, but hopefully bright, clear skies and icy-crisp air.

We will take, for safety
reasons, a maximum of 16 people on this trip, accompanied by a strong
support team (team leaders, guides, porters). If you are interested
