For travelers visiting the U.S., the Atlas America policy is a great option for hiking and other recreational sports activities. This plan includes coverage for hiking, mountaineering, and rock climbing at elevations up to 4,500 meters (around 14,700 feet). It also offers up to $1,000,000 in emergency evacuation coverage, which can be essential if you’re hiking in a remote location.

For international travelers (outside the U.S.), consider the Patriot International Plan. This policy also provides coverage for hiking, mountaineering, and climbing up to 4,500 meters and can be purchased for as few as five days.
