Here are 3 classic mountain trips from World Expeditions:

• Inca Rivers Trek (16 days). “The route follows a remote mountain traverse between two sacred Inca rivers – the Apurimac to the west and the Urubamba to the east. Between these rivers lies the great Vilcabamba Mountain Range, the last stronghold of the Inca Empire… The trek continues to the Inca site at Paltallacta, which provides a stunning and rarely seen view of Machu Picchu.”

• Great Wall Trek (10 days).  “This innovative itinerary takes in a remote section of the Great Wall outside Beijing in Hebei Province. Hosted by local families, you will camp in comfort in exclusive locations and explore the Great Wall trekking between villages.”

• Kilimanjaro – Shira Route (10 days). “From the forest and moorland to the caldera of Shira volcano, you will explore the rock formations on the Shira plateau before traversing beneath the southern ice fields of Kibo. Enjoy early morning views of Kibo and spent time in the rarely visited Lent Hills, a highlight before you join the main route to the summit of Uhuru Peak (5,895m) on the crater rim.”
