Koshertreks Around the World

Koshertreks organizes and leads treks to extraordinary destinations for people who keep kosher.

A trek is a multi-day hike in the mountains.

Trekking does not require any technical skills, but does require, at a minimum, that you be healthy and reasonably fit. Each trek is classified according to its level of difficulty.

Trekking means traveling light, being self-reliant, and respecting one's surroundings. Personal provisions are carried in a backpack and sleeping arrangements are in mountain lodges/hostels or in tents.

"Kosher" first and foremost means that meals and utensils are kasher and that Shabbat is observed. On another level , "kosher" frames the perspective and the particular trekking experience that is offered.

Discover the myriad of Koshertrek destinations available for the adventurous Kosher travler today.
