Expedition phases
The pace and the content of every World Challenge expedition is generated by students like you. We work with you and your team to create your final itinerary, but as a Challenger you will be making decisions about what your team and you want to achieve while you are in-country.Most of our expeditions can be broken down into 4 phases:
AcclimatizationAs a team, you will spend a few days getting used to being in a new place – bartering in marketplaces, eating new foods, communicating with local people and doing some warm-up hikes.
Challenging Phase
Trek through incredible landscapes with the help of the World Challenge Expedition Leader, local guides, pushing yourself to do things you’ve never done before.
Community Service
The team will interact with the local people and have the chance to give back to the communities you are visiting. As the leadership team, you and the other students will be the project managers of the service site.
Rest & Reflection
Take time at the end of the expedition to do those exciting and unique activities that are particular to your destination.
Because our standard expeditions are shorter in length, many can be geared towards just a project or just a trek. World Challenge will work with your teacher to decide what is the best fit for your school.
