Mountaineering Tours
Mountaineering is the flawless adventure for the body and soul. India is a land blessed with lofty snow-clad peaks, crystal glaciers, Rolling Meadows, jagged rock faces, verdant valleys, meandering rivers, cascading waterfalls, dense forests, and hospitable people, blessed with a rich culture, a land perfect for mountaineering, trekking, and rock climbing.
India offers a vital range of mountaineering opportunities on its challenging peaks - the climber enthusiast can indulge in this romantic adventure in mountain ranges of Ladakh, the Nun-Kun Massif, in Jammu and Kashmir, in hills of Manali in Himalayas and Uttranchal.
In India, mountaineering as a sport came with the Europeans in the 18th century. That was a time when entire Europe was experiencing a new phase. New regions were being explored, won, and native peoples were being made to become civilized.
Himalayan Exposure strongly recommends that before taking up mountaineering one has to engage in regular exercise for at least two months. It is recommended that all travelers carry a small first aid kit as well as any personal medical requirements. All climbers planning to join the trip should have a high level of fitness before undertaking the trip.
The summer months are ideal for the mountains. Trekking in the lower Himalayas and climbing in the higher ranges are possible through May to mid-October. The month of July is avoidable in Himachal and Uttar Pradesh as there is heavy rain and landslides during this month.
