For almost twenty years, we had the good fortune to help you discover the majestic slopes of Kamchatka, as well as those of Lake Baikal and the Caucasus. These destinations have now been put on hold and we need to change direction.<\/p>\n

That is why we have created Elysium Escape after several months of questioning, reflection and research.<\/p>\n

Anyone who knows us will know that we are driven by a spirit of exploration and discovery. But even more than that, our aim is to share with you the unique sensations that you experience on arriving on a snow-covered summit, making the first tracks on an untouched slope, spotting a wild animal at a bend in the path, rounding Cape Horn…<\/p>\n

The list of adventures we have shared with you is long, but the list of adventures to come is still full of surprises.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
