Har ki Dun Trek

Har Ki Dun

Dates
early bird offer valid till 31, Jan 2025

an experience that lasts forever

Test your endurance and will power on this high altitude trek up the Garhwal Himalayas. Kick off this adventure with some exciting rafting on the Tons. Then trek from rocky terrains, through pine and oak forests and lush green meadows on your way to the summit. If you’re lucky, there might even be snow! End the days setting up campsites above the clouds.

lead and take ownership

Start with an intensive session to plan out everything needed for the coming days. From menus, ration and utensils to contingency food plans. Divide and share the load of supplies (‘khachchars’ help with the big stuff). As the days progress, instructors take a step back as the group takes initiative. Learn to work as a team—look out for each other, learn to be considerate and share the responsibilities of cooking, cleaning, firewood collection and resource management.
