GET STARTED

Here you won't find an answer to the meaning of life, but we will try to answer all the rest

The trips are usually between 6 to 12 people, depending on the location, activity, and type of accomodation. You will meet new friends, and become a part of a climbing community. Bring your guitar and BBQ cookbook!

Depending on the trip you will be accompanied with a local expert, a driver, or a climbing guide when required. The trips may be designed for intermediate or advanced climbers. We expect all climbers to be fairly self-reliant, and while we will go through the safety with everyone, these trips are not aimed to teach you the basics.

Moreover, we welcome families, groups, and couples in our trips! 

Our trips are usually designed for 6 - 12 people, depending on the destination and activity. 

While some level of general fitness and climbing ability is desirable for you to make most of the trip, there are no limits. We select destinations for the beauty of climbing rather than their difficulty. Most areas are easily accesible from the accomodations or a parking area.

We also consider that climbing every day is strenous. Fun activities are on offer for days off, and some accomodations offer swimming pool, others camel rides, or a hike to explore local magic. Others are near bars to enjoy some local loco-loco fun. 


Sure thing! Join us for a fun trip with fellow climbers to explore amazing climbs! Whether a seasoned climber, or someone who wants to start climbing outdoors, come with us! 

Sure, just message us for a 5% discount!

We are offering a range of discounts and promotions at any given time! Follow our Instagram and Facebook accounts and don't miss out. 

We appreciate that organising a trip for a larger group might be easier for us, so if you are planning a birthday party, company trip, school trip, or stag party, get in touch with us on whatsapp or email us.

We can organise a trip taylored to your needs! 

Of course! Old, young, thick, thin, we are all part of One. One Climbing community, beautiful in variety. Please, do not hesitate a second to come and join us. 

This is largely dependent on location and type of accomodation. Our accomodations offer a range of shared, and double rooms. We appreciate that people have different requirements, get in touch in regards to your specific booking and we can inform you about available options. 

Unless otherwise specified, all our programs will be governed by the following cancellation conditions.


First and foremost, we recommend that all participants obtain cancellation insurance in case you need to cancel your trip, experience flight delays that cause you to arrive late for the activity, or encounter any other unexpected issues.


You will have the possibility to cancel the Tour in accordance with the following indemnity scheme (refunded or to be paid depending on whether the payment was made and received):


90% Refund – If cancellation is notified 90 days or more before the start of the program.

Please note: if you paid a 10% deposit, this portion is non-refundable.


50% Refund – If cancellation is notified between 89 and 60 days before the start of the program.


0% Refund – If cancellation is notified 59 days or less before the program start date.


Refunds will be issued based on payments already made and received. If no payment has been made yet, the above percentages represent the amount still owed by the client.


Cancellations Due to Weather or Conditions

If the guide determines that weather or mountain conditions make it unsafe to do the activity, KooKoo Climb will offer one of the following alternatives:


a) A similar activity in a nearby location with safer conditions. For Mont Blanc, this may include ascents such as Gran Paradiso, Monte Rosa, Aiguille du Tour, Arête des Cosmiques, or Entreves, among others.


b) The possibility to postpone the activity to a later date, only if option a) is not possible.


c) Cancellation of the activity.


If the client chooses to decline Option (a), the standard cancellation policy above will still apply.

Please note that only the guide can decide to cancel a climb due to weather or conditions. Under exceptional circumstances, KooKoo Climb may choose, at its sole discretion, to issue a partial or full refund (minus transaction fees).


Unforeseen Changes During the Program

In the event that a taxi or transport service is required during the program—due to weather, storms, snow, natural disasters, or route alterations—this cost will be considered an additional expense to be shared among all participants.


Any unforeseen additional costs incurred due to changes in itinerary or conditions will be covered by the participants, if they exceed the original program price.

By confirming your booking, you agree to obtain insurance that includes coverage for accidents in high-altitude mountain environments, as well as repatriation in case of emergency. You may be asked to provide proof of insurance prior to the start of the program.

Be sure to subscribe to our Newsletter - in case of cancelations, we will inform our community about an available spot on an upcoming trip.

Also, our trips run many times, just select another date! Alternatively, look for a different destination on the same dates. 

Absolutely! There is no travelling without experiencing the local culture. You can choose to spend your free time on your own, or doing some of the activities organised by us. Furthermore, rest days are part of your trip schedule.How long before my trip starts should I arrive?What type of lugguage should I bring?Do I need to bring a sleeping bag and roll-mat?Can I bring my own tent?


Ideally, you want to arrive at the airport in the destination in the morning hours. However, you may plan to join us as part of your ongoing travel - and that is completely fine. Just let us know whether you meet us at designated time and meeting point or later at the accomodation. We will ask you to clarify this as part of the booking process. This does not affect the price of the holiday package. 

We expect our travellers to have appropriate climbing equipment. That includes haul bags, hiking back packs (60-80 litres), and day bags (20-30 litres). This enables you to transfer and travel comfortably. What we would not recommend is carrying around wheeled suitcases and fancy handbags.

On that note, we expect our travellers to bring maximum of two bags, which they can travel with comfortably on their own powers. Sherpas carrying your luggage around are not incorporated in services included in the packagges. 

Again, up to you. We personally like to occasionally get out of the comfort zone, and perhaps stay one night on a nearby peak to fully experience the sunset and sunrise. But there is no obligation, and you will always have a bed available. 

That is a good idea if you plan to stay somewhere on your own. However, during our trip, that is not required or necessary. 

Each of our trips include a Public Liability insurance.

Our insurance covers accidents when Kookoo is responsible for them. However, it is recommended that customers purchase their own travel/accident polices for the activities, since in case of negligence on the part of the client, Kookoo's insurance would not cover an accident. Check details for each trip or get in touch if anything is unclear. Personal climbing insurance might be desirable, especially if you have any special needs. 

We recommend the Mountaineering Scotland membership for UK residents, since it lasts a whole year and only costs £37.95 covering all kinds of mountain activities, and also has a wide range of discounts in hostels, mountain stores, etc.

Check Mountaineering Scotland.

No, we do not sell flights. Getting to and from the destination of your choice is entirely up to you. This also gives you the freedom to join our trip as part of your ongoing travel. 

We believe in your own judgement in this manner. If in doubt, do not hesitate to contact your local doctor and medical authorities depending on your country of origin. Ask your shaman, smoke a pipe of peace with your elders. Whatever works. 

Depending on location, some of our trips include full board, others are self-catering based. Check the details for every trip. 

Some of the accomodations provided will allow for safe storage, and your local contact will explain that upon arrival. However, common sense applies. It is recommended to keep eyes on your belonging while exploring local cities. Take the usual precautions you would take in your home city. 

Yes, the trips are safe. We have done them. But keep in mind that we are in the extreme sport industry. Make sure that you know what you are doing, do not hesitate to ask questions, and keep yourself and others save.
