Do you yearn to get outside, to see the wonders of God’s world? Are you a doer, someone who doesn’t like passive bus tours, sitting all day by the pool, gorging in hotel dining rooms? Do you want to feel alive, while walking through the most scenic mountain passes, glacial lakes, waterfalls and flower-studded pastures? Would you enjoy local mountain guides who offer unique experiences? Do you want to be moving, surrounded by new and old friends, luxuriating in the crisp, clean air, soaking in amazing views at every step?
Dani’s Kosher Outdoor Adventures are for you!
Dani’s trips feature the Fjords of Norway, the Canadian Rockies, Chamonix-Mont Blanc in the French Alps, the Dolomites of Italy, the Grand Canyon, the Spanish Pyrenees, the Julian Alps in Slovenia, and St. Moritz in Switzerland!
All of Dani’s Kosher Outdoor Adventures are premier experiential trips for those 50 and above. The trips last seven days and are based in one location. This minimizes bus travel and maximizes the time to take in the breathtaking views.
Travelers are offered three levels to accommodate fitness level and maximize enjoyment. Each group is provided with a local guide.
1. Walkers who want to take things slow and easy and be on relatively flat terrain
2. Walkers who want to walk longer and would like a moderate challenge, and
3. Hikers who relish getting the adrenaline going, the heart pumping, covering more ground and enjoying the climb.
Dani’s Kosher Outdoor Adventures invites you to join our rapidly growing community of Shabbat-observant Jews who enjoy being active and out in nature. People with similar values, who want to share beautiful experiences together and establish friendships. A caring community of friends who come back again and again, knowing that on Dani’s trips they will be treated with respect, made to feel comfortable and fed well, in a warm homey environment. Kosher cuisine is cooked fresh daily by a dedicated staff who will cater to your individual needs. Relax and enjoy a spiritual Shabbat with singing, meaningful tefillah and divrei Torah. All this plus amazing sightseeing and encounters with the local culture and traditions, as well as talks on current Jewish topics and opportunities for Torah learning.

He is dedicated to making kosher travel easier and more accessible for those seeking outdoor adventure. He focuses on creating outstanding hiking/life experiences in the world’s most beautiful locations, while cultivating cohesive groups with shared values.
