TWO EXPERTS. ONE DIRECTION.

EF Adventures has spent 60+ years building tours that go deeper than the trail, into the stories most travelers never find. Backcountry has spent decades making sure you're equipped for wherever that takes you. This partnership puts both together—expert-led active travel, and the gear that belongs on it.

Active travel experts

EF Adventures is the expert in small-group Hiking, Biking, and Multi-Adventure tours across Europe and beyond—led by expert Tour Directors who know these trails, towns, and tables the way a local does. Every itinerary is built to go deeper than the destination, and make sure you're ready when you get there.

Gear that goes the distance

Backcountry is where serious outdoor enthusiasts go when they need gear that performs—not just looks the part. With expert Gearheads on hand to match you to the right kit, and a catalog that covers everything from trail shoes to technical layers, they've been equipping adventures like ours for years.

Built for the same traveler

Both brands exist for the same person—someone who pushes themselves on the trail and comes home richer for what they discovered. Active, curious, and done settling for the surface version of anywhere.

More to come

The sweepstakes is just the start. Tour-specific shoppable gear lists, co-created departures, and exclusive traveler perks are all in the works. Stay tuned.
