🏔️ ALPINE TREKKERS DIFFICULTY SYSTEM

Longer mountain routes requiring good fitness, stamina and previous hiking experience. May involve sustained climbs and more challenging terrain.
🟠 LEVEL 5 — Intermediate+

Exceptionally demanding mountain challenges requiring extensive preparation, exceptional stamina and advanced mountain experience.
Routes may involve difficult terrain, significant exposure, altitude and very long days.
⚫ LEVEL 9 — Extreme / Technical
Route dependent
Technical mountain objectives that may involve scrambling, exposed terrain, rope work, snow, ice, glaciers or difficult navigation.
Relevant technical skills, experience and specialized equipment may be required.
⚫ LEVEL 10 — Expedition / Mountaineering
Expedition dependent
Major multi-day, high-altitude or technical mountaineering objectives requiring extensive preparation, appropriate experience, strong physical conditioning and potentially specialized technical skills.
Participation requirements depend on the expedition.
⚠️ IMPORTANT — Understanding Difficulty Ratings
Distance and elevation gain are guidelines, not the sole measures of difficulty.
Terrain, weather, exposure, altitude, temperature, snow, ice, scrambling, technical requirements, navigation, pace and activity duration can significantly influence the overall challenge.
For example, a shorter mountain route in Switzerland, Canada or the United Kingdom may be more demanding than a longer hike elsewhere because of weather, technical terrain or exposure.
The published event difficulty and participation requirements always take priority over the general guidelines above.

👤 OUR FOUNDER
Alpine Trekkers was founded by Chogo Ree (Siddiq Fegum), whose mountain journey began in 2006 as a porter and gradually developed into professional trekking, guiding and expedition leadership.
His mountain experience spans the UAE and numerous international destinations, including Kilimanjaro, the Karakoram/K2 region, Everest Base Camp, Mount Elbrus, the Atlas Mountains and Sabah.
Drawing on years of practical mountain experience, he established Alpine Trekkers in 2021 with a vision to make outdoor adventure more accessible while promoting preparation, responsible progression, practical mountain knowledge and genuine connections with nature.
Today, Alpine Trekkers continues to build an international community inspired by these principles.
