When choosing travel insurance from providers across different countries, keep in mind that coverage can vary significantly—especially for adventure activities such as trekking, peak climbing, and mountaineering. Many standard policies exclude high-altitude trekking unless you purchase an additional add-on or upgrade.
Before buying, check the maximum altitude you plan to reach and make sure the policy explicitly covers trekking at that elevation. Altitude limits often fall between 2,500–4,000 meters in basic plans.
Always read the policy wording carefully and confirm what is included, particularly for emergency evacuation and helicopter rescue, to avoid unexpected gaps in coverage.
