Get Know Us Better

Our Journey started with the humble roots & persistent efforts of an authentic mountain trek leader,  Mr. Bachan Rana is the man behind Himalaya Shelter. With over 20 years of experience leading numerous high-altitude treks, he founded Himalaya Shelter in 2013. He has undertaken training in Basic and Advanced Mountaineering (BMC & AMC) courses, water sports, CPR, and first aid from NOLS India & Indian Red Cross Society. 

During his extensive 13-year-long period of serving in the Trekking and Adventure segment, when everyone was focusing on the number of trekkers, he prioritized the quality of the work. With the vision of providing a customized experience to the trekkers, he founded the organization. Since he was born in a remote mountain village in the Himalayas, he was familiar with the hardships the villagers faced there. To help the local villagers, Himalaya Shelter encourages employment for locals by focusing on hiring employees mainly from the Himalayan mountain villages. Hence, we are vocal for locals. Himalaya Shelter also invests in their training and studies so that they can turn into well-trained individuals and develop leadership qualities in themselves.
