While a powerful motorbike is the best mode of transport for covering vast stretches of mountains, paved roads restrict one.
This is where trekking blended with rock climbing skills take you far in your quest for discovering the mountains at their pristine best. Most important thing while trekking in the Himalayas is to appreciate the scale and match one’s destination with one’s ability, for after all its about conquering the highest mountain ranges in the world!
I was reading about trekking in Shimla. And thought of adding this adventurous treks in the Himalayas. The best seasons to trek are the pre-monsoons and post monsoons.
The Himalayan foothills are just ideal for trekking, Hiking and Camping offering energetic out-door people a different and exciting option for a Adventure holiday. The Garhwal and Kumaon regions of Uttaranchal are the most popular destinations for trekkers, though Chamba and Manali in Himachal Pradesh, Dajeeling & Sikkim himalayas in the north east and Ladakh and Zanskar in Jammu and Kashmir, have interesting trekking routes as well...
High altitude treks (up to 5500 m), often with important altitude differences in the daily stages. They require fitness and endurance.
Indeed adventurous..
