Katie L'Herpiniere

Katie-Jane L'Herpiniere, from Devon, England, has been an adventurer for 18 years, completing her own human-powered expeditions from the Sahara to the Himalayas, the Andes, and places in between. She holds an International Mountain Leader guiding qualification as well as a Masters Degree in Rural Tourism. When not guiding, Katie is an avid cyclist, competing around the world in Unsupported Ultra-Distance bike races, both on-road and off-road. She's a strong advocate for getting outdoors to watch the sunrise, breathe the mountain air, and notice the natural wonders around us. Katie says "It's a tremendous privilege to be able to lead guests through some of the world's most beautiful places."
