For mountaineers, the Himalaya are the place where legends are made. Steeped in climbing history, for many it is a lifetime's ambition to stand on top of one of those summits. But the region isn't just for hardened mountaineers; trails and multi-day treks open up this landscape of giants to the curious hiker. It's a place everyone should visit at least once, not just for the scenery but the culture too. And who knows, if you dare to dream it might lead to something bigger...

You can't be what you can't see. We hope that reading about women's adventures will inspire more women to explore the edges of their comfort zones. You don't need a beard to climb a mountain or cross an ice cap!
Supporting female authors
The 'adventure' bookshelf is often dominated by books about and by male climbers and explorers. We aim to raise the profile of books written from a broader range of perspectives, especially female authors.
Female specific advice
There is much less research and training advice tailored to female specific physiology, but this is changing. We aim to help re-balance the gender disparity and highlight the advances in this field.
