Off-Grid

One crew. One mountain. This isn’t your average Everest Base Camp trek. It’s an ARRIVAL-exclusive departure, designed for those who want more than a summit selfie. Together, 20 of you legends will climb through Sherpa villages, listen to the chant of Himilayan monks and freeze your asses off under a million stars. But it’s not just the views that will leave you breathless – it’s the connection. To the land, the culture and each other. One date. One crew. Let’s go off-piste to the world’s most renowned un-comfort zone.
