Oct 7 – Oct 14, 2016

It is located along the border of India and Nepal. The Mahakali River trip is an exciting river journey along scenic terraced cultivation of the quaint and remote Kumaoni villages, coupled with sparkling water and wonderful sandy beaches. Even the drive is quite adventurous and picturesque which takes us through many important towns of Kumaon. This trip promises a wilderness journey of a lifetime. It is great for beginners to rafting and kayaking, as well as experienced adventurers as it has a few big rapids, like the ‘Chuka’, ‘Dimberghat’ and ‘The Creek’ rapids, to thrill us

A completely self contained trip, we will run the river with our experienced guides in the day time and bask in the natural beauty of the region in the late afternoon and evening.

Mountain Biking in the Garhwal Himalayas

A beautiful four days mountain biking tour in the Garhwal Himalaya offers mountain biking experience with easy to moderate difficulty level. Logistics support is provided by a support vehicle and qualified staff, which transfers camping equipment, luggage and supplies during the entire tour.

Har Ki Doon

May 01 – May 07, 2016

Nestling in the north-western corner of Garhwal, Har ki Doon is truly the Gods valley, which happens to be the translation of its name. Lying along the Tons River, a main tributary of the Yamuna, Har ki-Doon is dominated by the peaks of Swargarohini and Banderpunch and its rivers and streams originate from the glaciers of these two mountain massifs.

The people of this valley trace their ancestry back to the days of Mahabharata and claim to be the descendants of Duryodhana and his followers who are still worshipped in ways quiet unique and different from all other temples in India.

Kuari Pass – The Lord Curzon Trail

 

May 24 – May 31, 2016

Ascend through alpine meadow to the Kuari Pass and gain impressive views of the Great Himalayas and Zanskar Range Before continuing through mixed forest and traditional Hindu villages.

Trekking over the Kuari Pass affords some the finest views of the Himalaya – including the many peaks near Nanda Devi. This trek was a favourite of the British trekkers. The pass was often referred to as the Curzon Pass because of former Viceroy George Nathaniel Curzon’s love for the region, although he never crossed the pass; his party turned back after an attack by a swam of bees!

Although the Kuari Pass (3640m) is not high by Himalayan standards, take an additional day for acclimatization, particularly if considering camping near the pass.

The Brahmaputra Expedition

Nov 20 2016 to Dec 02 2016

The Tsang po river from Tibet flows into India as Siang and after the confluence of Dibang and Lohit becomes the great Brahmaputra. While most Indian rivers bear female names, this river has a rare male name, as it means “son of Brahma” in Sanskrit. The expedition on the great Brahmaputra begins at Tuting in Arunachal Pradesh where it is still called the Siang. Get ready for some of the best big white water the world has on offer for rafting. You’ll be pumping adrenaline all the way as you hit rapids such as the ‘Pulsating Pulsi’ and ‘Toothfairy’ at Cherring. This self contained river run offers an awe-inspiring journey through tropical forests, gorges and a peek into a rich culture, unlike any other. The Great Brahmaputra is for anyone who is looking for an exhilarating rafting and kayaking experience that is sure to leave you with goose bumps whenever you think about it.

We camp on a beach beside the river almost every night of the expedition and doze off, gazing at the stars as we slip into dreams of the adventures of the day and look forward to the next.
