What We Stand For?
Eco-Friendly Expeditions
We believe in leaving the mountains cleaner than we find them. To realize this, we offer our staff a financial incentive for every kilogram of waste extracted during our time on trail. We also collaborate with local communities and conservation organizations to promote conservation awareness that results in cleaner, healthier ecosystem.
Unique Destinations
Our team members have spent years exploring Asia's most remote mountain regions. Through this we have procured some of the most remarkable sections of trail in the world, all of which is entirely unknown to the international eye. We are very thrilled to share some of these unique destinations with you.
Cultural Immersion
At Great Goat Expeditions we admire the tenacious character of the rural populations that call the Central Asian mountain ecosystems home, and are fascinated by the different strategies that these peoples have adopted in order to thrive in such conditions. We offer our guests a deeper understanding of these unique ways of life, and hope to cultivate feelings of mutual respect across cultural divides.

The Snow Leopard Track
The Snow Leopard Track is a provisional 15,000km network of alpine trails linking Nepal to Kyrgyzstan, created by Ian Roth - Co-Founder and mountain guide at Great Goat Expeditions. The route connects the chain of Asia's great mountain ranges, through the Himalaya, Karakorum, Pamir, Hindu-Kush and the Tien-Shan. When complete, it will form the longest continuous network of purely alpine trails in the world. Along its course it ranges through desolate deserts, dense jungle, long glacial passage, and verdant steppe. The core route involves no fewer than 35 technical mountaineering passes, and culminates at the zenith of Peak Lenin (7132m).
At Great Goat Expeditions, all of our routes are inspired by the Snow Leopard Track, each covering small yet exceptionally beautiful sections of this epic route. Our tailored itineraries blend these with cultural engagement to create exciting and diverse wilderness experiences. Join us and our skilled team for the trip of a lifetime!
