UT Kangri Expedition Overview
UT Kangri Expedition is one of the most adventurous and moderate to difficult level expeditions in the Ladakh region of India. It is close to Leh with an altitude of approximately 6,070 meters, and provides the trekkers a real experience of mountaineering. This is typically begun at Leh where trekkers will take a couple of days to acclimatize themselves to the elevated altitude. Then, the trail passes by cold deserts, rocky roads, and expansive mountainous conditions.
The scenery is literally enchanted with snow-capped mountains, never-ending brown mountains, and clear blue skies that are right there. Although it is termed as an expedition, it is deemed appropriate for experienced trekkers with the basic knowledge of mountaineering.
The summit is not the only special thing about UT Kangri, but the adventure that takes place on the way. Trekkers camp in skies full of stars, hike on glaciers and gradually acquire some fundamental climbing techniques such as crampon and rope use.
The last summit day normally begins very early in the morning when the world is silent with the mountains being shone by the moonlight. When you get to the summit, it is very emotional as you are able to see an unending Himalayan range that extends in all directions. UT Kangri is not merely a climb, it is an experience that will be in your heart long enough.
More Information
Why To Do UT Kangri Expedition?
The UT Kangri Expedition is an excellent option when one wants to achieve the goal of summiting a Himalayan peak and has only begun their adventure life. It is among the few mountains in India which are not only high but also novice friendly with appropriate training and guidance. It does not require that you be a professional mountaineer, you only require good fitness, will and the desire to test yourself.
The adventure makes you leave your comfort zone behind and see what you are really capable of. Hiking on glaciers, mastering the art of roping and camping in the mountains will provide you with actual mountaineering experience without making them too dangerous. It is a kind of an ideal introduction into the world of high-altitude climbing.
The other large reason to conduct UT Kangri is the beauty and emotions that one cannot forget. Ladakh landscapes are unique, there are dry mountains, snow-capped peaks, calm silence, and endless skies. When you stand on the top you feel proud, confident, and close to nature.
It is not the matter of getting to the top, but the process, collaboration, time and self-improvement. Most individuals even come back to UT Kangri feeling more confident about themselves and with a great affection to mountains that lasts a lifetime.
Highlights Of UT Kangri Expedition
Non-Technical Summit
UT Kangri is regarded as the most suitable mountain for beginners who would feel like trying a first time real mountaineering. The height is over 6000m but still non-technical. Trekkers can make it up to the summit with the correct guidance. It provides you with a good introduction to high-altitude climbing without being so frightening. You get to learn step by step, thus, your confidence builds up day-by-day.
Beautiful landscapes
The adventure occurs in Ladakh, a place known due to its magical and unusual landscapes. You pass deserts with cold temperatures, mountainous ranges, and vast valleys that are not similar to the green forests in any way. The sky is so near, the air is sweet, and the mountains are interminable in all directions. On the way, you observe snow mountains in the sun and even frozen rivers. It seems like you are walking in a postcard every day.
Authentic Mountaineering Practice
UT Kangri is not a usual trek, it provides you with a sense of actual mountaineering. You get to know how to use such gears as crampons, ropes, harnesses, and ice axes. Some fundamental skills that guides impart to you are how to walk on the snow, how to balance on icy slopes and how to climb in a safe manner. This is a very helpful experience as it equips you with larger expeditions in future. It is a kind of preparation field for your mountain dreams.
High-Altitude Camping
The UT Kangri expedition camping is a unique experience. You remain in tents amidst high mountains and total quietness. Evenings are chilly yet quiet and there are so many stars in the sky that you can hardly find in the towns. Sharing stories with your team, sitting there and having hot soup in freezing weather is beautiful.
Self Development and Self-confidence
UT Kangri is not a mere physical struggle but also a mental one. You get to know patience, teamwork and self-belief. High altitude climbing makes you feel strong and enduring but when you can go through it you find that you are actually strong. Most individuals come back better people having more confidence, relaxed and closer to nature.
UT Kangri Expedition Route and Trail Details
The UT Kangri expedition is typically initiated at Leh, which is the main town of Ladakh. The initial two days are mainly acclimatization, that is, providing time to your body to adapt to the high altitude. Trekkers visit the surrounding locations, make short walks, and sleep well, such that they will not experience altitude sickness in the future.
Once this is done, the push commences towards the base area, usually around Rumtse or Lato village based on the path that the trekking team takes. This is where the actual trekking business begins. The expedition begins through the dry valleys, open barren land and easy slopes.
The trail is more rocky, snow-covered and steep as the trek ascends. The camps are normally established at varying heights to allow the climbers to take time and remain safe. You will be able to walk over rocky patches, frozen areas and even little glaciers. The last part leading to the summit is the most difficult one and there are snow slopes and great cold winds. Crampons and ropes are used in the process of climbing to keep the climbers safe.
Difficulty Level Of UT Kangri Expedition
High Altitude Challenge
The greatest challenge of UT Kangri is the high altitude. It has a peak of over 6,000 meters and this implies that the oxygen level is extremely low as compared to normal cities. Due to this, individuals will experience breathing difficulties, fatigue, or develop minor headaches during climbing. This is what makes the days of acclimatization in Leh very crucial.
Physical Fitness Required
UT Kangri is not a simple hike, it requires physical fitness. There is no need to be an athlete but you should have good experience in high-altitude trekking. You should be able to ascend while carrying your backpack. Nevertheless, trekkers can successfully complete it with a little preparation and a positive attitude to it.
Cold Weather Conditions
In Ladakh and in the higher camps the temperature may fall below zero at night. Snow and strong winds may complicate the expedition. You may experience cold weather which at times slows your pace and even simple tasks such as putting on gloves or shoelaces are not easy. Winter clothes, nice shoes, and thermal clothes are extremely essential.
Mental Strength
UT Kangri is both physically and mentally challenging. There are days when you can be tired, slow or unsure that you will make it to the top. Your patience can be tested as well by the long walk in the dark during the night. This is where teamwork and self-belief come in the most. By doing things one step at a time, you discover you have a strength within yourself. Most trekkers can testify that the psychological trip is what transforms them and makes the final success on the summit even more memorable.

UT Kangri Expedition Itinerary
Fly from Delhi to Leh. You should try to take an early morning flight so you can reach Leh in the afternoon. It will give you more time to acclimate. Have some rest in the guest house and you can also explore the local Leh market and enjoy the warm meal.
Give your body a good rest to acclimate for the high altitude and thin air. Do some light exercises and small walks. You can also visit some nearby places like markets and monasteries. Your trek leaders will guide you and help to acclimate better.
The team will start driving to Rumtse Phu from Leh. The distance is about 100km and you will see the extreme beauty of Ladakh region. The team will set the tent on the basecamp and then you can take rest for acclimation.
Today, we will start trekking towards the Intermediate Base Camp from Rumtse Phu. The height gain is only about 300m but it can still feel very difficult. The thin air and high-altitude gain can cause AMS. Walk slow and steady to reach the Intermediate Base Camp.
The altitude gain from intermediate basecamp to the main basecamp is just 200m. This is the basecamp where you will spend most time on the expedition. The distance is less but the difficulty level is more. Take good rest at the base camp.
You will need a day to acclimate to managing the altitude. Your trek leaders will train for the expedition, tell you about gears and all in and out. You can also pray to the mountain God at the basecamp for a successful expedition.
The summit day starts very early. You will start walking towards the summit probably at mid-night. The elevation gain is 930m. Ascending 930m in harsh conditions is very difficult. Wear proper gear and always listen to your trek leader. After completing the summit, you will descend back to the basecamp.
You will start trekking towards Rumtse Phu. The joy of completing the expedition will give you real joy. You will drive back from Rumtse Phu and will reach Leh by the evening.
In case of bad weather, you can use the buffer day for completing the expedition. If the expedition completes on time successfully, you can use the buffer day for rest or to explore Leh city.
Drive to the Leh airport and then take your flight back to Delhi. Collect your UT Kangri expedition memories and take them with you forever.
What Things Should I Carry For UT Kangri Expedition?
For the UT Kangri Expedition, it is essential to pack the appropriate things since the weather is cold and the elevation is high. You will need warm clothing in layers such as innerwear thermal, fleece jackets, down jacket, and trekking pants.
Trekking shoes of good quality with good grip are obligatory since the path is covered by snow and loose rocks. Pack woolen socks, gloves, warm cap and sun glasses to protect your eyes. A comfortable backpack, water bottles, sunscreen, lip balm, and personal medicines are also quite important.
Personal and mountaineering essentials that make the climbing process easier should also be carried along. Additional items such as headlamp with additional batteries, trekking poles, energy snacks, power bank, and simple toiletries are quite helpful.
Travel Tips And Safety Guidelines
Acclimatize Properly
The greatest advice is to allow your body time to adapt to the high altitude. Take rest for 1-2 days at Leh before you start your trek. You can do small walks and take a good rest. Eat well and do some light exercises.
Stay Hydrated
Your body can lose water very immediately at high altitude. In such a way, drink water often and be hydrated at any moment. Carry a bottle and sip water from time to time. You can also eat energy bars and warm soup. Do not miss meals as you will need good energy to complete the expedition.
Go Slow and Keep up
Do not attempt to walk briskly or to race. The rule of mountains is slow and steady walking. High altitude will make breathing and walking very tiresome within a short period of time. Be small steps, take deep breaths, and take short breaks when necessary. Keep things at a steady pace and you will conserve energy to summit day and you will have a stable body.
Understand the Symptoms of High Altitude
Get acquainted with the simple symptoms such as headache, nausea, dizziness, heavy breathing or anorexia. In case you experience these signals, notify your guide as soon as possible and do not conceal it. Problems can be avoided at an early stage. Occasionally taking a few hours of rest or even going down a notch or two can be of much help. The summit is never more important than your health.

Vaibhav Pareek
We successfully completed Bali Pass Trek through Himalaya Shelter. A big Thank You to Mukesh and Suraj for ensuring highest levels of safety and comfort throughout the journey. Both of them are certified mountaineers. The fresh food prepared by Bablu Mama felt like a blessing throughout the journey, as we crossed the 16200 feet pass. This trekking organization is meticulously managed and operated by the down to earth entrepreneur Bachan Rana from Osla. The entire team shows great commitment towards the wellbeing of their guests. I strongly recommend Himalaya Shelter for any High Altitude trek or expedition.
Pranav Yaguvakota
It was an amazing experience, the trek was very well planned, we had an amazing crew to keep watch, of us our guide sonu negi was very experienced on high altitude and technical treks, this being our first high altitude trek it was quite an experience staying in tents which were set up before we got there, really delicious food made by our cook sanjay gave us freshly made hot food. And a helper along with us named vivek who was a local. The trek difficulty was moderate, on the surya top we got an amazing view of the gangotri and yamunotri ranges. The locations of the tents were very strategically well set up by the advice of sonu. He made sure we were all hydrated and well kept , All in all we thank himalayan shelters for making our experience very comfortable.

Outstanding Customised Surya Top Trek with Himalaya Shelter – Premium Gear, Elite Guides & Exceptional Food! We recently completed the stunning Surya Top Trek organized by Himalaya Shelter, and they completely exceeded my expectations. If anyone wants a tailored and personalised, safe and premium trekking experience to this 12,900-foot peak, this company is as good as it gets. Perfectly Customised Itinerary. From the initial planning stages, the team at Himalaya Shelter was incredibly supportive, adapting the itinerary seamlessly to our group’s specific preferences and pace. They focus on personalized experiences rather than massive, overcrowded commercial batches, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful forests and meadows of the Garhwal region fully. The guide with our team, Sonu Negi, was absolutely phenomenal. He has completed advanced training from the prestigious Himalayan Mountaineering Institute (HMI), and his deep technical knowledge and sharp safety instincts kept us feeling entirely secure. He wasn't just a leader; his encouraging nature, deep familiarity with the terrain, and mountain views (like Mt. Bandarpoonch and the Gangotri range) made the journey unforgettable. Most importantly, he prioritized our safety by proactively carrying portable oxygen and other critical emergency equipment. Since our group of 7 members was ranging from the age of 9 to 73 , this gave our entire group immense peace of mind. The food was an experience in itself. The Backcountry Food by Sanjay our cook, was too good. Massive shoutout to him, who turned our high-altitude campsites into a gourmet kitchen. Every single day, he served up incredibly delicious, fresh, and hot meals that were perfectly planned for the physical demands of a moderate trek. The hygiene standards really good , and having such thoughtful, comforting food waiting for us after a long day of trekking was a total game-changer. Just to show how exceptional the culinary experience was: for fun, Sanjay even prepared fresh puris for Pani Puri right there in the middle of the mountains, and we wrapped up our evenings with warm, delicious Gulab Jamuns as desserts! Treating us to these kinds of treats at high altitude was a level of hospitality we never expected. Talking about the Camping Gear. The quality of the camping equipment provided by Himalaya Shelter is drastically superior to what other mainstream trekking companies offer which I have experienced in my earlier treks. Heavy-duty, clean, double-layered tents that provided excellent insulation and kept us dry against the unpredictable mountain weather. Thick mats and high-quality, cold-rated sleeping bags with fleece inner for the feet that made sleeping in chilly high-altitude conditions genuinely comfortable. Every zipper, tent pole, and piece of technical gear felt in very good condition and maintained very well. Himalaya Shelter perfectly balances top-tier safety, impeccable local hospitality, and premium comfort. I am immensely grateful to Sonu, Sanjay, and the rest of the crew for an unforgettable adventure. I will absolutely be booking my next Himalayan trek with them.

We had an Amazing Experience with Himalaya Shelter The Surya Top Trek!! This was our first ever trek to the Himalayas with Himalaya shelter. we recently completed The Surya Top Trek which was a moderate trek and we all managed to finish the trek!! It was truly an unforgettable experience. The trek offered stunning mountain views, peaceful forests, beautiful campsites, and a magical view of the Gangotri And the Yamunotri ranges from the Surya Top. A special thanks to our guide, Sonu Negi, who was experienced, friendly, and extremely supportive throughout the journey. Since this was our first high-altitude trek with 3 nights of wilderness camping, his planning, guidance, and focus on safety made us feel comfortable and confident at every step. Our food was cooked by an marvellous cook Sanju who cooked amazing food throughout our trek and even in our campsites…!! The campsite arrangements, and overall management were excellent.

Hema Sri
Bhuran Ghati Trek – Himachal Pradesh Just returned from an amazing trek to Bhuran Ghati with Himalaya Shelter — absolutely loved the experience! Their small group format ensures personal attention to every trekker, making it a safe and comfortable experience for solo travellers and groups alike. Trek lead Bachan Rana was excellent — clear with guidelines and always made sure everyone was safe. Freshly cooked meals on the trail, a luggage offloading option for those who need it, and rental trekking equipment make this one of the most hassle-free treks you can book. Having a female trek lead, Tanisha, is a wonderful touch that makes women and solo female travellers feel much more at ease. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-organised, safe, and memorable Himalayan trek! 🏔️

Hey we completed B the phulara ridge trek and safely reached Dehradun today. We enjoyed the trek throughout. The trails, the forest, the ridge walk was thrilling. I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation for the trek guide Sooraj and the support staff, cook for arranging the trek and supporting us throughout . Sooraj was polite and patient always especially with my son who is 8 and was doing his first trek. He kept entertaining us with all information about different flora and fauna while walking through the forest trails. The cook served tasty meals always and we loved eating local vegetables plucked from the forest. Overall we had a wonderful experience. Thank you .

tanush choudhary
My experience with himalayanshelter was great. We were the first batch of 2026 to complete the Bali Pass trek. Since the rest of the group cancelled due to the weather, there were only two of us, but the team still provided all the facilities as promised. Our trek leaders, Sonu Bhai and Suraj Bhai, were amazing. They guided us throughout the trail and shared a lot of knowledge about the mountains, trails, and wildlife, which made the experience even better. This was my second trek with himalayanshelter, and I’ll definitely be coming back to them for my next adventure.
Shubhadeep Ghosh
Over the phone call / whatsapp, the plan was very detailed. The Trekking charges were clearly spelt out and it sounded quite reasonable. From Dehradoon Hotel, the pick up was very smooth and right on time. The driver stopped at very convenient places for breakfast/lunch and other breaks. The base camp was in a beautiful location. The food available there was basic and very tasty. The rooms were very cosy and view from the rooms were very good. Our trek guide, Mukesh, met us in the basecamp and briefed about the trek plan. He was very welcoming and helpful. During the entire trek, Mukesh was with us. We had an excellent experience with him. He was very accommodative and helpful. There were few places where I was slipping where he came to help me out promptly. He ensured that we are not stepping in wrong places through out the trek. It was extremely cold and rainy the time we arrived in Osla. He sensed our struggle in acclimatisation with the harsh winter condition. Mukesh was very prompt in giving us the food to the room. In the camp site as well, during the very cold condition, Mukesh delivered snacks/tea/hot water etc to the camp so that we didnt had to come out to face the wrath of cold condition. Overall I and my son, had a very good experience with Himalaya Shelter's Har Ki Dun Trek and with Mukesh especially. I will definately go with them next time for another adventure.
Kritika Patidar
Thank you Himalaya Shelter for making this one of my best experiences so far. The staff were supportive and very helpful in everything. The stays and food were awesome, we also got to explore a little bit of the local culture. Already looking forward to planning the next trek!

We recently completed the Ranthan Kharak Trek with Himalayan Shelter in mid-April 2026, and it was an amazing experience. The trek is बेहद scenic with beautiful meadows and stunning sunrise & sunset views. A big thanks to Bachanji, Tanisha & on-field Team for their constant support and guidance—they made the journey smooth and enjoyable. The warm soups and delicious meals were a big comfort after long trekking days. Truly a lifetime memory. Highly recommend Himalayan Shelter for a well-organized and memorable trek!

Latha Ravichander
Latha Ravichander Mumbai i have attempted my 1st Himalaya trekking. It was very nice scenic and also is was managed by excellent trek leader, Thoy & Suraj who have helped us in all the scenic places and helped us in the tough climbs. The cook & the Subhashji who take care of the horses and our luggage too for the whole trek were awesome. The early morning lemon tea, breakfast, lunch, evening snacks & dinner was very nice and yummy. One suggestion if their is senior citizen dont keep a tough route or new route in the trek. The Boslo to devsu tht jungle route was very risky & last climb was also tough. Himalaya Shelter hip hip hurray
Ashwini Khodre
Just finished the Har Ki Dun trek with Himalaya Shelter and it was unreal. Huge thanks to our guide, Surender, who really knows these mountains and kept us motivated the whole way. Also, a massive shoutout to Vijay Singh Chauhan—the food he cooked at those altitudes was easily the highlight of our nights. Best team ever!

Himalaya Shelter made my Har Ki Dun trek unforgettable. A huge thanks to the Director, Bacchan Rana, who truly delivered everything he promised during booking. What made it special: Amazing Guides: Big shoutout to trek leaders Suraj and Thoiba. They are experts, super supportive, and kept us motivated. Homely Vibes: The "ghar jaisa" care was real. We felt so well looked after. Food & Stay: The food was delicious and the stay was the best we could ask for. ⭐ 5/5 Stars Bottom line: Trustworthy team and excellent service. Highly recommended!

Went with Himalayan Shelter to the Aancha top trek. Amazing hike, beautiful scenery and best of all, a while lot of pure white snow at the peak in the month of April! The HS team was incredible, with Nitin Bhai as the iconic guide and Micheal Bhai and Rocky Bhai being the best cooks and assistants possible. Micheal Bhai made slides on the snow on the way down, making it extremely fun to get down. Recovery from trek everyday was so instant with amazing evening snacks and chai.The team also helped make blazing campfires, making our trip as memorable possible.

We had a great time with Himalyan Shelter doing Ranthan Kharak trek. We were 10 of us, including 4 kids with youngest one aged 8… This was our third private trek in the Himalayas, and the trek with Mr Bachan and his team was undoubtedly the best. He was really flexible right from planning and ensured that he took the best calls every day to maximise both the experience and convenience. Food was absolutely the best.. Team served us local cuisines, Samosas, Rasagullas etc… We were pleasantly surprised by the yummy food we were served during the trek… Mr Bachan had great foresight about the weather and physical conditions of the entire group and ensured that he customised the plan daily for us. He would also distribute the team responsibilities in such a way that everyone can walk at their own pace without making them feel any less accomplished or supported. Would recommend Himalayan Shelter and plan to use their service again!

I had a wonderful experience during my trek to Kedarkantha last week through Himalaya Shelter. We had unseasonal snow and rainfall, however the trek was completed successfully along with Tirpan Rana who accompanied me from Himalaya Shelter. All the arrangements throughout my journey were excellent. I look forward to my next trek with Himalaya Shelter.

Had a great experience! Sonu immediately made me feel at home, helping me with planning out the Har Ki Dun trek, and helping with climatizing. Mukesh was a great guide during the trek, providing everything I wanted. Also, great food at the shelter and during the hikes, props to the chefs!

I had an incredible solo experience on the Kedarkantha Trek with Himalayan Shelter—truly a once-in-a-lifetime journey. It was just me and the guide/team, and everything was well organized and thoughtfully handled from start to finish. A special thank you to my guide, Thoiba, who was attentive, kind, and very accommodating throughout the trek. He made me feel safe and supported every step of the way. The crew did an amazing job—the food was delicious, and reaching the summit was absolutely breathtaking. An experience I’ll never forget. I’m so grateful and would highly recommend Himalayan Shelter to anyone looking for a memorable adventure.

I've been trekking since 2020 and been on multiple treks like triund., nag tibba., chandrashila., kheerganga., kareri lake., VOF., hemkund sahib and many more but it's my first trek with himalaya shelter and I must say that it's been the most amazing experience till now. The services they gave and the hospitality and concern they showed us is really heartwarming. Our trek leaders Mukesh Bhai and Suraj bhai are the most caring and providing trek leaders I ever met on any of my treks as those are the guys u can look upto for anything. U can just get a booking with himalaya shelter and leave the rest assured to them and they will surely deliver more than u think and expect. It's been an excellent journey and I'm going to continue it with you guys for a good long period. दोबारा मिलेंगे किसी मोड़ पे., जो बाकी है वो बात होगी कभी.... 🙂🙂

I recently completed the Har Ki Dun Trek with Himalaya Shelter, and honestly. From the very beginning, their team was super supportive, well-organized, and genuinely caring. Our trek leader Sonu was knowledgeable and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the journey. Meals and accomodations were excellent. Big high-five to Himalaya Shelter Guest House in Sankri. I would highly recommend Himalaya Shelter to anyone planning Har Ki Dun or any other Himalayan treks. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced trekker, they make the whole experience memorable, safe, and truly enjoyable. Planning my next trek to Buran Ghati again with Himalaya Shelter. Kudos
mayur jain
Very nice services, very accommodating, and polite behaviour of everyone from central helpline to the workforce on ground - guide, cook, drivers. Will definitely book Himalayan shelters for all my trekking plans in future, and will recommend others too.

I went on the Nagtibba trek with my 7 year old son. This was my 5th trek with Himalaya Shelter but first with my son. It was his first ever trek and he absolutely loved the experience. The arrangements were perfect with attention to small details like arranging a blanket and mattress for my son who would not have snugged into a sleeping bag. They had also arranged head torches for everyone. The food is always a highlight with simple yet delicious meals especially after a day long trek. The guides are knowledgeable and make sure it’s an experience to cherish.

himalaya shelter review I went on the Har Ki Dun trek with Himalaya shelter in mid March. Throughout the planning of the trip they answered every question we had and were able to adjust the trek itinerary to fit our plans. My only criticism is that the weather forecast they sent us was not quite for the right place (I don’t think any exist for the actual right location of this!) so just be aware of this- if you follow their packing guidance you would have all the right stuff anyway! and anything you are missing you were able to hire on arrival in Sankri easily. Throughout the trek our guide Thoiba was excellent and always ensured our safety and comfort throughout as well as chatting to us about the local history and geography. During the trek we had a lot of unexpected snowfall and Thoiba and the rest of the team adjusted our itinerary when needed and always made sure we were as warm as possible delivering lots of warm food and chai to our tent (the food provided throughout the trek by Sanju and Thoiba was excellent and plentiful- they were also able to cater to dietary requirements if needed). All the logistics were handled seamlessly throughout with mules organised to carry all the stuff and all the tents set up normally before we had even arrived at the campsite! Overall I absolutely loved the trek- I highly recommend the Har Ki Dun trek for anyone wanting a few days of adventure with relatively easy hiking combined with some time in some remote Himalayan villages!
Ayushmaan Chakraborty
I did my first trek with Himalaya Shelter. This company was recommended to me by a friend and they do stand up to it. During our Nag Tibba trek from pickup to drop off at Dehradun they arranged it well ahead of time and in an organized manner. The staff served delicious meals and our Trek Leaders Tanisha and Risabh were professional courteous and sometimes downright funny. I would recommend the Himalaya Shelter to anyone going hiking in Uttarakhand.
Emma Lewis
Thoroughly enjoyed the Har Ki Dun trek with Himalaya Shelter! The booking process was easy and they kindly answered all our questions. Our guide Thoi Ba dealt with the unexpected snowfall very professionally and the food from our chef Sanjay was always delicious with lots of variety. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Sanjay Purohit
We were a group of 5 treking friends ( Nandu / Vikram / Uday / Mukund / Sanjay ) from Maharashtra with age range from 70 to 75 yrs. We have been trekking in Himalayas for more than 30 yrs. with different agencies. This was our 1st experience with Himalaya Shelters and it was very good. Mr Rana ( Himalayan Shelter ) was very coperative to accomodate our requirements. All the team members ( Leader Nitin / Guide Chandramohan / Cook Vjay / Driver cum helper Ravi ) were very helpful, cooperative & courteou
NANDKUMAR BHAGWAT
Our group consisted of 5 trekkers all senior citizens above 70 years of age. We did Bramhtal Trek on 14th March 2026 to 22nd March 2026 Rishikesh to Rishikesh via Lohajung. Mr. Bachan Rana of Himalayan shelter arranged our customized trek. Trek leader Mr. Nitin Trek Guide Mr. Chandramohan cook Mr. Vijay and driver cum assistant Mr. Ravi. Food camp management and service throughout was excellent. Tents, camp chairs toilet tents sleeping bags and dinning tent were in good condition esp. Camp at tilandi was on snow and we had no difficulty neither any inconvenience. Preparation and choice of food was very good. Entire staff was very punctual through. Selection of Home stay at Rishikesh and Lohajung was good. All in all we all were very happy with Himalayan shelter. Nandkumar Bhagwat
Uday Paranjpe
We, 5 friends all between 72 to 75 years young did Brahmatal Trek with Himalaya Shelter on 14 to 22 March 2026. Bachan Rana helped a lot to customise our program details. I must mention here that our Trek Leader Nitin was very caring and humble. Special thanks to our cook, Vijay for very tasty and variety preparations. Our local guide, chandramohan from Govid Ghati was very knowledgeable. Our driver, Rabi, was careful. Although the wheather suddenly changed to snowfall and rains, the support team was ready for all eventuality. All in all I can say that Himalaya Shelter and the trek support team made our trek a comfortable, memorable experience.
Hardik Khandelwal
It was an amazing trip, Pravesh (PK) bhaiya and Santosh bhaiya were very helpful, the food provided was also nice, very helpful whenever we needed help
Katheryn Antonio
I had an amazing experience. The village (Pantwari) was so cute, Nitin was so helpful and respectful the entire time. My only downside at Nag Tibba was that the dogs didn’t stop barking and the tent I slept in was on a downslope which means I felt like I was slipping all night. Regardless, the views were beautiful. I felt so safe and comfortable. Every driver and person was so warm. The food was delicious too, I do recommend bringing a snack for the summit, hiking poles and warm layers. Also ANTI NAUSEA meds for the windy roads. MUST.
Tridibesh Misra
Very good management and super friendly people. Driver was very good and experienced. Food from day one till the end was very tasty. Guide (PK bhaiya) was super chill and always motivated us during the trek. Overall wonderful experience.
Ayush Sharma
Staff(driver + guide + cook) was very friendly and helped a lot throughout the trek. Food was very tasty from day one till last day. Accomodation was good and the equipments including rental gears were of great quality. Enjoyed the trek and will recommend to go with Himalaya Shelter as your travel companion.
Sanjay Sorathiya
It was excellent experience and fantastic tracker guide of Himalaya shelter team Mr. Sonu best tracker and nice food arrangements and good service

Completing the Aancha Top Trek with my friends was one of the best experiences I’ve had in the mountains. A big thank you to Himalayan Shelter for organizing such a wonderful trek. The entire team was very professional, friendly, and supportive from start to finish. Our trek leaders and guides were experienced and always motivated us during the journey. The food, campsite arrangements, and overall management were excellent. The highlight of the trek was definitely the stunning view from Aancha Top. Standing there with friends, surrounded by the beautiful Himalayas, was truly unforgettable. I highly recommend Himalayan Shelter to anyone who wants a safe, well-organized, and memorable trekking experience.

Kedarkantha + Har Ki Dun treks with Himalaya Shelter is sheer bliss. Service + Knowledge + taking care of smallest things = Return for more. We loved the entire experience and will be doing all future treks with them. Keep up the good work and spread your wings. India has so much to offer at such good price to unwind...
Pankaj Shukla
I would like to share my sincere appreciation for Himalayan Shelter for organizing our trek to Kedarkantha. From the very beginning, all arrangements were exceptionally well planned and professionally managed. The coordination, communication, and on-ground execution reflected a high level of experience and commitment. The support staff were courteous, helpful, and always ready to assist, ensuring that every participant felt comfortable and confident throughout the journey. The trek was structured in a disciplined and well-paced manner, which enabled us to achieve the summit safely and successfully. Their focus on planning, safety, and teamwork truly enhanced the overall experience and made the achievement even more meaningful. I had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Himalayan Shelter to friends and colleagues who are looking for a reliable and professional trekking organization. Thank you for making this journey memorable and rewarding. Pankaj Shukla

The trek was fantastic. The guide was really helpful and patient. He took everyone to the summit with great pace. The food and tents were set up before we reached our destination allowing us to rest properly. The food was also made at site which was great as to have hot food at such a place was luxury. The team from Himalayan shelter guided us and made our journey better. If I were to go on another trek I would definitely choose Himalayan Shelter again.
Thibault Dargere
My experience trekking to Chandrashila with Himalaya Shelter was excellent, especially as a beginner-friendly introduction to the mountains. The team was incredibly experienced and well-prepared, providing two guides and a driver who were all exceptionally kind and professional; a special mention must go to Mukesh, whose expertise made the journey feel seamless. While the guides were fantastic and the route was very welcoming, the itinerary did have a fair amount of downtime each day, and I personally feel the schedule could have been a bit more compact. Overall, it was a great trip led by a staff that truly knows their craft.

We had a good experience with Mr. Tirpan singh as captain. He was very helpful and even the food was very tasty sanju bai and anil made sure we eat proper food at all the times . The whole stafff was very helpful trhough out the trek
Bianca Nuti
Great experience with Bachan Rana and Mukesh in the trekking through the Kunjapuri temple and Neer waterfalls! We all loved it, they were very kind and careful to make it unforgettable! Thank you guys
Caterina Giannessi
Veramente un bel tour e trekking a rishikesh. Ci hanno potato con una jeep in vetta a vedere l’alba sui picchi dell’himalaya, poi siamo scesi lungo la montagna per circa 9 km. I ragazzi ci hanno aiutato nella discesa e ci hanno portato e preparato la colazione con roti, uova, patate e The e caffè durante il trekking. Veramente consigliato!
Sudhakar Tetali
The last two days were hectic in enjoying the treks in and around Rishikesh and Pantwari in Uttarakhand. As a beginner and at 60 years of age, it was tough for me to do these treks but I enjoyed it as a challenge and tested my lungs and heart functioning to the max limit. I travelled this trip solo but met a few very young guys from Delhi/Ghaziabad who were part of the trekking group. These guys were awesome and full of energy. I chose Himalayan Shelter as my tour guide and Bachan Rana was very helpful in arranging everything and he is very experienced in this business and as an accomplished trekker . I believe trekking/hiking gives you soul satisfaction and one of the best ways to make new friends. Overall the Rishikesh trip added a new perspective on how to lead a single life and deal with physical challenges.
Samwise Patterson
We had an awesome experience with the entire Himalayan Shelter team! Our guides were Bachan rana, and Ramesh sajwan and they both an amazing job taking care of us. They knew the trails very well, they took care of our needs at camp like food and shelter and ensured our safety during the entirety of the journey. If you get the chance, please take this adventure with the Himalayan Shelter team!
Izzy Bernbaum
Some of the nicest guides and best views you could imagine highly recommend.

I recently trekked to Kedarkantha with Himalayan shelter. I would like to appreciate the whole team, for their cooperation, patience and making the submit a success. Special thanks to Nitin, Sonu and Arjun, to make sure, everyone took part in the trek, and for their genuine help to all the trekkers. The food was fabulous as well. Thanks for your, help and guidance team.
Ankit Kundra
Himalaya Shelter is an excellent trekking company. The staff was extremely cooperative, and the rooms were clean and hygienic. The food was outstanding — easily 5 stars. Our trek leader, Saurabh, was highly experienced and continuously guided, motivated, and supported us throughout the trek. The Kedarkantha trek itself was an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience that gave us a bag full of memories and valuable life lessons. If you’re looking for a reliable and well-organized trekking company, Himalaya Shelter is a great choice.
Archish Vasu
Recently I had an amazing experience on the Kedarkantha Winter Trek with Himalayan Shelter, and a big part of that was thanks to Tanisha Chauhan our trek lead. From the very beginning, she was extremely helpful, professional, and supportive. She guided us clearly with all the trek details, preparations, and logistics, which made the entire journey smooth and stress-free. During the trek, her coordination and constant encouragement really stood out, especially in the challenging winter conditions. Tanisha’s positive attitude, dedication, and care for every trekker made this experience truly memorable. I’m very grateful to her and highly recommend Himalayan Shelter—and especially Tanisha—for anyone planning a Himalayan trek.
Manish Kukreja
Yes, ~12,000 ft / ~3,600 m! We did it with the exceptional team at Himalaya Shelter. We are a family of four with two boys (11 and 12 years old), and this was our first Himalayan trek at Dayara Bugyal. We were picked up from Dehradun Airport and driven to Uttarkashi, where we stayed for a night. The next day, we drove to Raithal and started our trek to the Gui campsite, spending the night in alpine tents at freezing temperatures of -1°C. On the second day, we walked about 8 hours in total and scaled the highest point of Dayara Bugyal (~12,000 ft). That evening, our cook, Subhash ji, presented us with a surprise cake during dinner to celebrate the moment. The night was even colder at -4°C, and the peaks saw some snowfall. On the third day, we descended to Raithal and drove back to Uttarkashi for the night. On the final day, Bim (Sasi) and the Himalaya Shelter team dropped us off in Rishikesh to continue our adventures in Dev Bhoomi, Uttarakhand. We would like to thank the entire Himalaya Shelter team: Bachan ji and Tushar for booking and operational assistance; Tanisha, our trek leader, for guiding us and being patient and encouraging with our children; Sonu for providing overall guidance, care, and sharing his experience throughout the journey; and Subhash ji for the amazing, thoughtful, and yummy food, as well as accommodating our requests. Finally, not to forget Bim (Sasi)—a safe pair of hands behind the wheel who made the whole trip safe and comfortable. Thank you! We hope to continue this relationship with another adventure—maybe Har Ki Dun?!
Devanand Jethanandani
It was very wonderful trekking experience of Ancha Trek we had with Himalay Shelter.. Very delicious food we enjoyed on the entire trip and thanks to the cook Bijay Singh Overall experience was memorable one.
Jitendra Teelani
We completed the Ancha Top trek with Himalayan Shelter, and overall it was a great experience. The arrangements were well managed and the service was amazing. A special mention for the food — it was truly awesome, which made the trek even more enjoyable in such cold conditions. Huge thanks to Vijay (MAMA) for the delicious food and warm hospitality 🙏 — it really felt like home on the mountains. However, we would like to share one concern. We were a group of 8 people, and unfortunately, we felt that the guide Mukesh was mostly involved with one foreigner guest, due to which our group was often left on its own. This affected our overall experience and group coordination. We hope Himalayan Shelter will look into this and ensure equal attention and support to all trekkers in a group. Overall, a memorable trek with great food and service, with scope for improvement in guiding support.

GOOD SERVICE COOK IS VERY GOOD "BIJAY SINGH" HIS COOKING IS VERY DELICIOUS HIMALAYA SHELTER GROUP MANAGEMENT IS TOO GOOD WITH CUSTOMER WE FEEL LIKE FAMILY PERSON

Had a fantastic time with the team during my Dodital trek and Aancha top trek. Their warmth, care and expertise gave no room for discomfort at anytime. It was a great get away with friends while seeing each other a little outside our comfort zones. Highly recommended!
Anagha Ghorpadkar
We had a fantastic trek with Himalayan Shelter in dec 2025. We were a group of 14 people. Right from the time we reached Dehradun and until our drop back to Rishikesh, the entire journey was very well arranged. Timely pick up, comfortable road trip in a TT to Raithal, trek preparations, the lovely Pahadi food, comfortable stay at Raithal was just awesome. Through the trek, Mr Bachan Rana and Mr. Abhimanyu were very enthusiastic and encouraging. Rocky was a hero for us- always with a smile and serving us yumm food. The kids loved him as he gave them super maggi 😊. Anything we asked Rocky said - “ho Jayega” which put all our questions to rest. Our first Himalayan trek and it was made memorable with Himalayan Shelters. They made it comfortable as home in the Himalayas 😊. Looking forward to more adventures with them.

I have been travelling with Himalayan Shelter for two years now, and it has been an absolutely wonderful experience. The guides are extremely knowledgeable, talented, and responsible. They were also very generous and supportive throughout the trek, always ready to help and motivate everyone. Thanks to their excellent planning, guidance, and constant encouragement, the trek never felt exhausting at all. Safety, comfort, and group morale were clearly their top priorities. I felt well taken care of at every step.
Iftiker Alom
This trek turned out to be completely unexpected in the best possible way. Although everything was unplanned, the entire journey unfolded beautifully and was full of pleasant surprises. Bachan Da’s storytelling and the way he shared his experiences throughout the trek made the journey truly special, it was engaging, warm, and memorable. The homestay arrangements were excellent comfortable, welcoming, and well managed. The service provided throughout the trek was outstanding, and the care and support from both Bachan Da and Rocky Da were genuinely exceptional. Their company made the trek even more enjoyable and reassuring. The summit was breathtakingly beautiful and absolutely worth the effort. Both the journey and the destination were remarkably scenic and enriching. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and I would highly recommend trekking with them to anyone looking for a meaningful and well guided adventure.

Just completed a trek to Dayara Bugyal with HimalayaShelter. We had a wonderful experience thanks to the team. Not only were the arrangements top-notch, but their flexibility with our plan changes, genuine warmth, encouragement, and of course, the yummy hot food served lovingly made it all the more special. Highly recommend Himalaya Shelter.
Shashishekhar Chaugule
Trust Bachchan and his team at Himalaya Shelter for a well-organized, comfortable trek. We did Dayara Bugiyal with them in December 2025 and would surely love to come back for more.
Vineet Dravid
We trekked with Himalaya Shelter in Dec '25. The entire trek was excellently organised. Attention to detail was commendable and every possibility was accounted for by the team. The entire team was committed and worked from 4 to 10 to ensure the trek was incident free and pleasurable. Special mention to their commitment to the environment. They minimised waste and there was no plastic throughout the trek. Highly recommended!
Koustav9
It was a great trek❤️❤️ The behaviour and the familiarity they have the shown in the entire tour was amazing. Looking forward to some more adventures with this group😊😊

We organized our team offsite for 23 member team through Himalayan Shelter, and the experience was absolutely outstanding. From start to finish, everything was managed with great care and attention to detail. Tushar and Bachan added thoughtful personal touches throughout the journey, ensuring that every small requirement was taken care of during our trek from Chopta to Chandrashila. Our CEO and CTO joined us from the US, and they thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the experience, which speaks volumes about the quality of planning and execution. The food and accommodation were extremely hygienic, comfortable, and well-organized, and the transportation arranged for the team was smooth and top-notch. Overall, Himalayan Shelter went above and beyond to make our offsite memorable, seamless, and truly enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone looking to plan a well-curated and hassle-free trekking or team offsite experience in the Himalayas.
Vishal Reddy
Had a wonderful experience at Kedarkantha. The trek was beautifully organized, and the entire journey was smooth and memorable. A special mention to our guide Tirupan Rana — extremely knowledgeable, calm, supportive, and always motivating throughout the trek. He ensured everyone felt safe, comfortable, and confident, especially during challenging sections. His local insights and positive attitude truly enhanced the overall experience. The arrangements, food, and campsite management were well taken care of, making the trek enjoyable even in tough weather conditions. The only minor drawback was the unavailability of hot water for bathing, which was manageable considering the terrain and weather. Overall, a fantastic experience and highly recommended — especially with a guide like Tirupan Rana, who made the trek even more special.
