Our guides are among the best in the world; we've climbed and guided professionally in Patagonia, Alaska, New Zealand, Mongolia, Siberia, Thailand, and the Alps. All of our guides are WEA trained and certified mountaineers, are Wilderness medicine certifed, and are "Leave No Trace" instructors.

"I enjoyed every day, doing different things and seeing different places. The guides were professional and extremely helpful. The trip was better than I could have expected. Kiitos Palvon (Thank you very much)!"

-Tiina N., 32, Finland

We've taken hundreds of people from all over the world into the mountains. Last year alone, our clients spent more than 2000 nights camped near thundering glaciers.

At The Patagonia Mountaineering School, individual attention and safety is paramount to every expedition. With groups no larger than 7 members, you always have a guide right there, teaching you something new or helping you along the way.

Hear what a Past Client Said about The Patagonia Mountaineering School:

The Patagonia Mountaineering School offers an expedition for everyone. We have 21 day Patagonia trekking expeditions as well as 42 day Patagonia mountaineering school that strives to cross the Patagonian Ice Cap.

Expeditions in Patagonia can be a challenging; in fact, we pride ourselves in NOT being a "soft adventure" company. Here, there are no trails, no huts, or porters to carry your bags. But the rewards of being so far from civilization are the incredible views and gourmet food that await you at the end of each day.

"This was not a "walking holiday" in the sense that most people undertake. This was a unique experience where you learn the skills you need to thrive in the wilderness, actually discussing and making decisions as a group together. Learning to work and trust each other as a team...
At times it was hard, very hard... But the expedition, while pushing each of us to the edge, was nothing but a positive, amazing experience.

- Jason W., 32, England

There is no greater thrill than feeling the crunch of a glacier beneath your foot, hiking by an incredible lake, or climbing a remote mountain peak. And there is no better, more qualified company in all of South America than The Patagonia Mountaineering School Expeditions.
