Ideas for meeting

Plan a hike with company

A hike takes more preparation than a city walk. For a first meeting, choose a short daytime route suited to everyone’s experience.

Describe the route and experience

Give the distance, elevation gain, terrain and expected duration. Say whether you have walked the route before. An invitation from another participant does not by itself include a professional guide.

An invitation to adapt

A daytime 6 km hike with a gentle climb, for people with basic hiking experience. We will discuss the route, equipment and return transport before confirming.

Agree equipment and transport

Discuss water, food, footwear, rain protection and navigation. Check return transport and travel costs. Meet in a busy place before setting out; avoid making a stranger your only way to get home.

Make turning back an option

Check weather, access restrictions and local conditions. Agree a turnaround time and an alternative if someone gets tired. Tell someone you trust the route and expected return time. Do not continue a difficult section just to keep the group happy.

Turn the idea into a meeting

Pick the specific activity — each has its own invitations.

Where to go together

Choose a city and explore places. Check facilities for your activity, accessibility and reservations with the venue.
