About

I’m Gavin Lang, a mountain guide, and my passion is helping people achieve their mountaineering objectives, one important step at a time. I’ve been guiding in the Southern Alps of New Zealand since 2004 and I incorporate coaching and self-development skills into my programme to ensure maximum fulfillment.

I help my clients achieve their very best potential physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually whilst adventuring in some of the wildest terrain on the planet.  Through daily challenges and debriefs, I facilitate growth not normally encountered on a standard mountaineering experience, ensuring you fully enjoy the process.

The dedicated courses, ‘Self Mastery through Mountaineering' which use mountaineering as the vehicle for self discovery are next level journeys beyond the physical.

Ultimately, you will walk away with new skills and perspectives to help balance your life on and off the mountain.

And in case you’re here to find out more about my non-guiding life….

I am husband to Jin, father to Violet and we live in the beautiful town of Wanaka on the South Island of New Zealand. I love to eat wholesome organic food, and practice mindfulness through Meditation and Yoga.

I have worked as a Travel Agent in Ireland, qualified as a Cave Leader in Belgium, gained a Diploma with distinction in Dutch, toured in Europe and the US as a Drummer, gained an Advanced Cert. in Outdoor Recreation Leadership and mountain guiding qualifications in NZ and certified as a Psychosomatic Therapist and Emotional Anatomy Consultant in Australia. I am blessed to combine my business of Photography with my adventures.

Each of these varied interests has added tremendous colour and experience to my life and motivated me to establish my own guiding operation to share this knowledge.

Life is most definitely a crazy adventure to be lived.
