The Himalayas is the most dramatically beautiful mountain range in the world. This selection of walks in the Indian Himalayas has been carefully chosen so that you can enjoy the striking landscapes, diverse flora and fauna and the grandeur of the peaks without having to climb them. There will be 3 days of walking during which each day's walk will be between 4 and 6 hours. The evenings will be spent in village guest houses in local villages. With your own walk leader, you will spend the days walking the magnificent footpaths through terraced fields and wooded hillsides, enjoy picnics with views of the high mountain peaks and encounter a wealth of wildlife, as well as experiencing local life.
