SWS Mountain Guides
International Expeditions &
High Alititude Mountaineering
"Real Adventure Travel for Climbers "

Our Expeditions and High Altitude Mountaineering Courses are
designed “For climbers by climbers”. Groups are kept small, from 4-6 clients so we can experience the local culture and explore unusual places and areas of interest to the group. Each expedition or mountain course is lead by a Senior SWS Mountain Guide who works with the local guides and services to provide the best and safest expedition as possible. While much of our time is spent on the physically demanding climbs, we do allow for time to enjoy the culture and explore the sights and sounds of each country we visit.

We strive to show you the best each country has to offer, no canned tours in air conditioned buses, we interact with the local population/culture, and explore opportunities and celebrations when they occur. Whether we are finding a great out of the way restaurant, joining a local celebration, watching the parade, or hiking to an out of the way spot, we will always strive to be safe, fun, and exciting. Meeting our goals is a top priority but having a great time is an added benefit! Small groups give us the ability to make changes to the itinerary to take advantage of special events while pursuing our goals. Come join your personally experienced Senior SWS Mountain guide on an ecologically sound “real” climbing expedition designed by climbers for climbers! Give Tim, David, or JB a call at 888.797.6867
