Trek Epic offers transformational experiences for emerging young adults who are seeking to expand their understanding of who they are and how they can offer their Core Gift to the world. Since 2011, Andrew Bryan and the Trek Epic team have facilitated forty-nine international walking treks designed to foster reflection, personal growth, and purpose-centered development in small, supportive groups.

Each trek is more than a journey through beautiful landscapes—it's a structured opportunity for intentional exploration of life direction and identity. These adventures are often used by participants to launch a Gap Year, prepare for the transition to college, or navigate early career decisions. We work closely with each individual before and after their trek to support the planning, orchestration, and implementation of meaningful gap year commitments—whether through formal programs or self-guided exploration. Trek Epic staff remain intricately involved throughout this vital year of self-discovery and purpose alignment.

For those seeking a deeper dive, Trek Epic Gap Year provides an extended, immersive experience of personal development, global travel, and guided mentorship. Each gap year weaves together a transformational 18-day walking trek with six months of intentional growth work, including Core Gift Discovery, reflective practice, and life design exploration. Participants are supported by a community of peers and mentors committed to helping them clarify their purpose and chart their next steps with confidence and clarity.
