Expedition at a glance...

Location: Russian Siberia.
Duration: 21 to 28 days.
Ideal for: An adventurous expedition for teams looking for a physical challenge in a unique environment.
How tough 1-5 (5 being difficult): 4-5 (depends on trek).
Typical accommodation: Hostels and tents
Terrain: Mountain and altitude.
When can I travel there?: May-Sep.
Climate: There really are only two main seasons in Russian Siberia, summer and winter offering fairly significant extremes in weather. Winters are bitterly cold, whilst the summer (May-Sep) offers highs of up to 30°C during the very best weather and a completely frost-free period of around 120 days. The summer is almost the wettest time of the year, although precipitation levels are fairly low and rarely spoiling the actual day.

What about if my school isn't involved with World Challenge?

If your school is not involved with World Challenge you can still get involved! Our Team Challenge offers the same exciting adventure with groups of like-minded individuals from Australia and New Zealand. Contact World Challenge, or visit our Team Challenge page to find out more.

Are any of your friends interested in an expedition?

See if any of your friends might also be interested, the more of you there are already the better.

Why not set up a Facebook group of your own campaigning to get an expedition set up and ask others to join. The school will then see how serious you are.
