^^^ Some of our most recent Kilimanjaro trekkers camping on the way to Kilimanjaro’s summit.
As summer continues its volatile run, the team is keeping cool with Sarah just back from exploring Southern Fiordland in New Zealand with a Back Track Group, and Leanne preparing for Bhutan in a few weeks on the next Ruby Anniversary Trip.
It doesn’t get much cooler than Antarctica and we’re starting to see early releases for the 2025/26 season, so get in touch if you’re keen to explore the White Continent!
If you follow the Lunar New Year, we’ve entered the Year of the Dragon which is expected to bring auspicious opportunities, improvements, and abundance – on that note we say yes please and have a great month!
From our family to yours,
The Back Track Adventures team
