There is something magical about how life connects you with people who feed your soul in the most unexpected ways. In 2012 I met Carla Geyser, Founder of The Blue Sky Society Trust, whilst on the epic adventure called The Put Foot Rally. After lending a hand helping to fix a flat tyre on her vehicle, we became friends and it has been so wonderful to see where her journeys have taken not only her but females from across the globe, down dusty roads of Africa, all in the name of adventure and conservation!
At Love Our Trails, we believe in the power of connection – to nature, to each other, and to the causes that inspire us to protect the wild spaces we hold dear. That’s why we’re thrilled to spotlight our friends at Blue Sky Society Trust and their extraordinary Journeys With Purpose 2025 line-up, including the breathtaking Kingdom of the Sky Expedition. If you’ve ever dreamt of adventure with purpose, this journey is calling your name.
Where Adventure Meets Conservation
The Kingdom of the Sky trip is more than an expedition; it’s a deeply immersive experience that combines adventure with impact. Picture this: trekking through the dramatic landscapes of Lesotho, a country affectionately known as the “Kingdom of the Sky,” with its rugged mountains, endless horizons, the famous Sani Pass and a culture steeped in tradition. As you journey through these pristine landscapes, you’ll also have the chance to connect with local conservation heroes working tirelessly to protect this beautiful region and its wildlife.
From meeting the guardians of Lesotho’s endangered species to participating in hands-on conservation initiatives, you won’t just learn about these efforts; you’ll be part of the story. Every step you take and every cent you raise for this trip contributes to supporting grassroots conservation organisations, ensuring their vital work can continue.
An Expedition Designed for Women Who Dare
This is a call to adventurous souls, bold spirits, and women who believe in the power of collective action. Blue Sky Society Expeditions has curated this trip with female travellers in mind, offering a safe, supportive, and empowering environment where you can embrace challenges, celebrate victories, and forge lifelong friendships.
Whether you’re an experienced explorer or stepping out of your comfort zone for the first time, the Kingdom of the Sky is designed to inspire and energise you. You’ll leave not only with incredible memories but also with a renewed sense of purpose and connection to the world around you.
If your heart is racing just reading about this, it’s time to leap. The Kingdom of the Expedition is not just a journey into the wild; it is a journey with purpose and an opportunity to be part of something bigger than yourself. Spaces are limited, so don’t wait too long to secure your spot.
