HIKING EXPERIENCES IN NORTH INDIA

BY: TOURS & TRAVELS DEPARTMENT

HIKING (AN IDEA) Hiking is the preferred term for a long, vigorous walk, usually on

trails (footpaths), in the countryside, while the word walking is used for shorter, particularly urban walks.

best for experienced, confident, self-sufficient high altitude hikers

One of the best hiking regions in the world is the INDIAN HIMALAYA.

HIKING SEASONS

Hiking seasons somewhere May-Nov (though micro-climates vary greatly). Many treks are not recommended in Jul-Aug — though you can hike most places in Ladakh in those months as it’s in the monsoon rain shadow.


WHY NORTH INDIA?• stunning high peaks• forested valleys, wildflower meadows• Hindu, Islamic and Buddhist cultures, architecture and history• culture of the mountain people• you can hike independently, hire a porter, or sign on with a trekking company• India is simply the most intense, memorable country to visit• travel is very inexpensive• watching for Lammergeiers, huge mountain vultures• variety of flora when climbing up from the low lands• virtually no dangerous wildlife• adding on visits to Bhutan (highly restricted) or Nepal (very easy)• excellent for photographers


PACKING FOR HIKING

• Rule for backpacking: if you cannot decide if you need it, you probably will not need it.

• Make a list to include everything that you will possibly need on your trip.• Reduce food weight and volume by packing primarily dehydrated meals.• Shop for a tent that suits your needs• Determine how much water you will need between the two points.• Wear whatever you find comfortable; there is no hiking dress code.• Bring a hand-held flashlight or a headlamp, for hands-free use.• When packing your backpack, place heavy items, such as water, camp stove

and fuel, tent poles and stakes, and food near the top of your pack and close to your back.
