About Himalayan Hikers Know Us Better

Himalayan Hikers is among India’s most experienced and trusted trekking organizations. Founded in 1990 by passionate mountain enthusiasts from Uttarakhand, our mission has always been to make Himalayan adventures safe, meaningful, and sustainable. With our deep connection to the land and years of hands-on experience, we organize treks and expeditions across Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Ladakh, Nepal and Sikkim. Whether you’re stepping into the mountains for the first time or are an experienced trekker looking for your next big challenge, we offer more than 200+ treks and 12+ high-altitude expeditions designed to suit every kind of adventurer. Over the years, our commitment to local communities, genuine experiences, and responsible travel has made us a trusted name in the trekking world.

How It Started

In 1990, when trekking was barely recognized across India, a few nature-loving locals from Sankri village began leading small groups through the mountains. There was no formal structure, no branding—just a love for the Himalayas and a desire to share that with others. Word spread quickly. What started with a handful of people grew into something much bigger. Slowly but steadily, with honest work and mountain wisdom, the idea took shape, and Himalayan Hikers was born. Today, we’re a nationwide trekking community—but our heart still beats in those same trails we first walked decades ago.
