A Grand Expeditions Company
 
 
Overview

Our Ellworth Mountains Safari is an explorer's dream - an expedition-style program that combines climbing and ski (or foot) travel to take you "off the beaten track" to reach the unexplored corners of Antarctica's interior. Each journey is unique; your itinerary custom designed. Trace new routes through the passes overlooking the Union Glacier and discover the secrets of the Marble and Liberty Hills. In the evenings, set camp with unlimited views of snow-covered summits and the pristine Antarctic continent.

As you travel through the scenic Horseshoe Valley and climb in the southern Ellsworth Mountains, you will learn new skills, build on old ones and experience the challenges of polar exploration. The Ellsworth Mountains Safari is a moderate to strenuous program. Some previous ski and climbing experience is recommended and a good level of fitness is essential. Our small group size allows the flexibility to customize this unique adventure, to ensure you get maximum enjoyment and satisfaction from your efforts.
