Himanchal Trekking/Tour


Himachal offers trekking tours from moderate to strenuous. refreshing communion with natural beauty. The lush river valleys surrounded by snow capped peaks...
the fruit laden orchards, and the dense forests that echo evoke enchantment and delight. Closer to the Greater Himalayan and Zanskar range, haunting landscape of the cold desert. There are numerous passes on these ranges which connect the valleys, making good trekking routes for all types of trekkers. One can cross one pass and return over the other or proceed further to cross another on the next range. The four great mountain ranges and a fluctuating snow line give Himachal have very cold climate. Though there are some regions which have hot summers and cold winters, majority of the trekking routes fall in those areas which are perennially cold. Thus trekking in Himachal requires adequate preparation to brave the cold wintry climate. For moderate to strenuous treks, the best season is from June to October.
