AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 ADVENTURES

01-02

Answer The Call Of The Wild In Lapland Real adventures aren't meant to be easy. The Fjällräven Polar Expedition-a 20-person, six-day, 300km sled-dog expedition 200km inside the Arctic Circle-is no joy ride. Swap competition for cooperation as you command your eager hounds, pitching tents in lows of -37°C experience.fjallraven.​com Like that? Follow in Robert Scott's footsteps. Swap north for south with a 15-day cruise around the Antarctic. Watch out for orcas.globaljourneys.​com

Spear Your Supper in Mozambique

Northern Mozambique is right on our doorstep, and a top spot for hunting the elusive (and giant) dogtooth tuna. Any fool can wield a rod and gut a fish-a real man free-dives into the clear blue seas with a speargun. Don't worry, the guides will help. extremebluewater spearfishing.​com

Like that? Hit the bullseye. Take aim and let fly with an archery experience for two at The Bear Grylls Adventure in the UK. Unlimited access to the Royal Marines assault course is also included. Romantic. virginexperiencedays.co.uk

Kayak to the Edge of the Map This 10-day excursion will take you to Greenland's remote Sermilik Fjord deep in the Arctic. There, you'll kayak alongside whales and learn ancient fishing traditions from Inuit villagers. Pack base layers. nathab.​com

Like that? Canoe Devizes to Westminster. This 200km challenge is the world's longest non-stop canoe race, beginning in Wiltshire in the UK and ending at Westminster Bridge.
