Mountain Cuisine

The menus for all climbs are specially prepared to provide a balanced diet of fresh fruit, vegetables, protein and carbohydrates. We choose food items that are easiest to digest at high altitude. Our cooks undergo extensive training and we have ongoing workshops to review menus. Dinners are typically a main course with vegetable and salad, chicken and fish, with pastas and rice dishes being served mid climb. Lunches are often on the trail and usually consist of cold cuts and vegetables laid out on a table with fresh hot vegetable soups with every meal. Packet soups, coffee, tea available on request between meals.

Breakfast of granola, toast, fruit, eggs, and sometimes pancakes or french toast. It is a good idea to bring any favourite snacks from home.
