Meet your trek instructor on Mussoorie’s Mall Road for a guided four-hour hike to Top Tibba, one of the highest peaks near town at 8,500 feet. You’ll walk through forest, stop for views, and may spot birds or wildlife. Rohit is one guide associated with the experience. Transport is not included.
“Enjoyed the hike with Rohit. He is knowledgeable about the area, fauna, fowl, and trekking practices and safety. He was well prepared for our trip and took our capabilities and experience as avid hikers into account for our trek. He helped arrange a ride and we even paid a little extra for the driver to help us explore town after the hike. Great experience”
Spend four days traveling from Rishikesh into Uttarakhand’s Himalayan foothills. Walk to Deoria Tal, sleep in a family homestay and campground, then rise early for Tungnath Temple and a sunrise hike on Chandrashilla Peak. Private transport, meals, forest fees, camping gear, and a guide are included. Your guide may be Ankush, praised for his friendly, informed approach.
“A great few days exploring the Himalayas. Absolutely stunning scenery and lovely trekking. I would highly recommend Mapping the Himalayas as a tour company. My guide Ankush was great - very fun and knowledgeable. The homestays were great and full of warm and friendly people.”
Trek from Dehradun to Kedarkantha through Sankri, Juda Ka Talab, and the 3,429-meter base camp. You get transport, tents, meals, guides, cooks, camping gear, and first-aid support. Guide teams may include Rocky, Kamesh, Sonu, Megha, Aarya, or Arjun. Expect snow, cold nights, and a demanding summit day.
“Service was overall good, tents stay were quite cozy, good quality food, guides were co-operative and well trained, i would highly recomend to go for himalaya shelter.”
Leave Tapovan before dawn with a small group and an English, German, or Hindi-speaking guide such as Pramod or Mak. Watch sunrise at Kunjapuri Temple, join a prayer and meditation session, then walk through oak and pine forest, villages, and mountain paths to Neer Waterfall. Breakfast, transport, entry fees, and a possible swim are included.
“I booked this excursion in the evening before, and was lucky that the guide took it. Everything was on time, we arrived in advance to the temple, met the sunrise and looked into the temple. After that we had about 5hours hiking on the mounting path, that was really amazing experience. The guide Mak is a very interesting companion, with lots of knowledge and personal practice. We discussed trough history, culture, spirituality, real life in India - in all topics he was very delicate and polite. Got interesting information. Thanks”
Walk from Ram Jhula through forested hills to sacred Neelkanth Mahadev Temple on an eight-hour private outing. Your English-speaking guide explains Shiva legends and local history, points out waterfalls and valley views, and provides tea or coffee. The route is steep in places, so bring water, snacks, and sturdy shoes.
“Adi was an excellent guide and knowledgeable about the are. It’s quite steep in places and you need to be reasonably fit. The views from the hillside make it worth the effort.”
A Himalayan pass, a smoking crater, a forest or a village bed.
