Certain Unhike trips may involve travel to remote, high-altitude, mountainous, or extreme-weather regions where facilities and infrastructure may be limited.

By booking such a trip, participants acknowledge and accept the following:-

In extreme winter conditions, particularly at high altitudes, water pipelines and supply lines may freeze.

- Participants should be prepared for basic and limited bathing facilities during such trips.

Note: the availability of hot water cannot be guaranteed throughout the journey.

• Electricity, Water & Network Connectivity:

Due to the remote nature of certain destinations and extreme weather conditions, participants may experience fluctuations or interruptions in:

- Electricity

- Water supply

- Mobile network connectivity

- Internet connectivity

Participants should be prepared for such limitations and should plan accordingly.

Unhike will make reasonable efforts to provide support and alternative arrangements wherever possible, but uninterrupted utilities or connectivity cannot be guaranteed.

Such situations may result in:
