Best Himalayan Treks

Home to the highest peaks on the planet, the Himalayas are vast – stretching across India, Bhutan, and Nepal and beginning and ending in Pakistan and China. While Everest grabs most of the headlines, many peaks are striking and distinctive in their features, exist here alone, and cannot be replicated anywhere in the world, especially when you include the mountain ranges west of the Indus – Pamirs, Hindu Kush, and the Karakoram.

We are fortunate to be born in a country that hosts this majestic range. At some point in life, we all want to travel to the Himalayas. Some of us have made that idea a reality and some of us are still thinking about it. Either way, there is always more to learn and more peaks to trek, the list of Himalayas is not really exhaustive. The purpose of this article is to try to address some of the questions that may come to your mind regarding Himalayan trekking.
