PASSION DRIVEN, ADVENTURES UNLIMITED!
Join us as we search for sights and sounds of less trodden paths in Singapore, Asia and rest of the world. At Adventures Unlimited, we walk with you through paths carved out by nature and sights that are preserved from the passing of time.
We cannot cover the world by ourselves, so we like to hear your stories in our community too!
Our Climbs, Our Walks, Our Journey
Every day is an adventure to be uncovered. Where is yours today?

Trek For Hope was established in 2013 to provide opportunities to families that are struggling to survive in their own communities. As adventurers, trekkers, and photographers, we often noticed that the intense beauty of a community attracted many visitors to villages throughout the world, yet the people in those villages did not have enough money to feed their children.

Each footstep we leave is a legacy and the legacy of Trek For Hope is to provide the basic essentials that a village may not have.
Our Trek For Hope has received coverage on major publications like The Straits Times, U-Weekly, Zaobao, Singapore International Magazine, and What’s Up.

If outdoor adventures and volunteering work are your passion, we invite you to join us in our next Hope Trek!

We also have a Facebook community called The Adventure Village created in 2015 to provide our "Villagers"  with updates about charitable work, activities, and it served as a place where those who participated in events could connect and share photos or start discussions. 
It is a wonderful community where we can widen our social networks when it comes to travel and adventure related conversations, content, and sharing. We'd like to invite you to come join us as well!

TRAINING HIKE: DAIRY FARM LOOPS (AMRAP)

Hillview MRT Station (DT3)

Get Ready for the Mountains

The Dairy Farm Loop has finally re-opened after like eons! Let's max it out and do AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible) - at your own pace. Do note that this trail is all stairs - some pretty high - so do bring some hiking poles if you think you need some aid there... we will end the training with a final summit before calling it a day!

For all adventure seekers training for your next trek, or simply be always ready for one! Join me and our trip participants for a training hike:

Meet: Hillview MRT (DTL)
End: Bukit Timah Nature Reserve
Distance: 1.6km/loop - you decide the total distance!

Ruck It Up
Rucking is simply walking/hiking with a weighted pack on your back. Rucking builds muscle and strength while improving cardio & endurance and well… burn up more calories! A day pack of +/-5kg will be a good start, or more for that multi-day trek. Loading up is optional; especially if you may have any health or medical restrictions. We can do a weigh-in of your pack for your own progress tracking if you are up for it.

NOTE:

  • advised to have some light breakfast before the workout
  • bring sufficient water and food/snacks for refuel
  • Waterproof your items and be rain-equipped (rain cover, rain jacket, poncho, umbrella, etc.)
  • Hiking poles (optional)
    In case of Cat 1 (bad weather); any change of plans will be announced on the morning of hike

The 'Waitlist' may not go in order as we reserve the right to prioritize the spots for our trip participants who are training for our upcoming treks. Thank you for your understanding!
