Walking Holidays in India

With its vibrant colours, captivating landscapes and bustling cities, walking in India offers a magnificent sensory shock of sights, smells, and sounds. It presents an immersive trekking experience that encompasses wildlife, mountains and beaches. India’s sheer size and incredible diversity mean that trekking holidays in India require multiple visits to even begin unravelling its treasures.

Trekking through the Nubra Valley or conquering peaks like Kang Yatse 2 offer Himalayan adventure, dramatic mountain scenery and a sense of remoteness like nowhere else and provide a stark contrast to the chaos of Rajasthan. Here, walking tours in India allow travellers to relish the tranquil Buddhist ambience of places like Jodhpur and experience a breathtaking sunrise that magnifies the colossal beauty of the Taj Mahal.

For a different perspective, India hiking tours through the lush, cool hills of Kerala and Cardamom Hills provide an entirely different facet of India - cruising on traditional houseboats, trekking through emerald tea plantations and savouring southern Indian cuisine offer a laid-back alternative to a Himalayan trekking adventure.

The country’s diverse landscapes and unique trails make walking holidays in India suitable for all abilities, offering trekking enthusiasts the chance to discover spectacular natural gems in every corner of this remarkable country.
