What is Trekking Travel Insurance?
There's nothing like exploring the world with your own two feet and taking a trekking or walking trip. There are millions of ways to travel, but nothing gets you back to nature better than trekking and embracing those incredible landscapes and new cultures. Whether you are a hardened trekker or embarking on your first trek, you need to make sure that your secure while away and that your travel insurance covers trekking. Carefully check the small print to see what altitude you're covered at and what terms apply. Especially as trekking usually envoles remote locations and challenging landscapes.
Decent trekking insurance is essential and you should ensure you're covered for emergency medical costs and repatriation expenses, and also all those other things that might go wrong on your trip, like lost luggage or stollen passports.

Our Globetrekker options are best if you are on an extended trip of one month or more and on a budget. You will get paired down cover, but you will still be protected for medical expenses and repatriation cover.
