Who is Behind it?

Lessons from the Trail: The Origins of Terra Venture

Terra Venture was founded by Charles Triponez and Roy Malone, renowned adventure athletes with decades of global competition experience.

They’ve taken the lessons learned from the trail – skills like communication, consensus building, resilience, strategy, and empathy – and applied them to their corporate and personal lives, leveraging the lessons for better outcomes.

Recognizing the profound growth that endurance adventures can inspire, they saw an opportunity to help others elevate their potential by combining the challenge of exploration with the pursuit of a purpose-driven life.

Building on their competitive journey, they joined forces with top endurance athletes and local experts from around the globe. Together, they’ve assembled a team dedicated to guiding you through transformative journeys in some of the world’s most stunning locations.
