The Active Travel Adventures podcast inspires and empowers you to lead a bigger life through adventure travel. We scour the planet for the most fun and beautiful active vacations, whether it’s climbing Machu Picchu, rafting the Colorado river through the Grand Canyon, walking the El Camino in Spain, or bicycling the stiletto heel of Italy. The common denominator is that you have to MOVE: either hike, bike, paddle and/or horseback ride for part of each day! The bar is set that my reasonably fit 58 year old body can do these adventures and so can YOU! These adventures aren’t crazy hard or dangerous like climbing Mount Everest… they are doable, epic fun vacations for those that are in decent physical shape. Most have a difficulty rating of 3 out of 5, so if you’re in reasonable shape, particularly if you are willing to train a bit, you can do these trips! All adventures offer a fascinating and unique way to immerse yourself in another culture or destination.

Want to Climb Mount Kilimanjaro? Summiting Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is a major ‘Bucket List’ dream adventure for many hikers.   As Africa’s tallest mountain (and the world’s highest freestanding mountain), the Uhuru peak rises to more than 19,330’/5892 m! So while it is not a technical hike, due to the extreme altitude, not surprisingly, only around 65% actually make it to the summit.  The main reason is not for lack of training, but rather because in
