Trekking Himalayas
Amongst the potent world’s mountain ranges, Asia is the abode of the largest, highest, and
most inhabited mountain system – Himalayas. The gigantic mountain range is believed to have
formed between 40 and 50 million years ago. This Hindu-Kush-Himalaya mountain string
extends over 3,500 kilometer across the countries of Pakistan, China, India, Nepal, Bhutan and
Bangladesh, covering an area of about 43 lakh km2. Stay tuned if you want to know more about
trekking Himalaya and check out some of the best Himalayan treks of India and Nepal.
Everest trekking
Everest trekking offers you great opportunity to have unique experience. The Everest area is
situated in eastern Nepal. It is protected by the Sagarmatha National Park, established in 1976
with an area of 1148 square kilometers. The park is largely composed of the rugged terrain and
gorges of the high Himalayas. Altitude ranges from 2845 meters above sea level (9,330ft) to
the top of the world, Mt. Everest at 8848 meters (29,028ft).
Mt. Kanchenjunga Trek
Mount Kanchenjunga, one of the world's most spectacular mountains, is renowned as the queen
of mountains. Kanchenjunga, the third highest peak 8,586 metres on the planet, can boast of
varied ecological zones, from the subtropical land to glacial wilderness. Mighty Kanchenjunga
glacier is the most famous attraction of Kanchenjunga. Great valleys, encircled by high peaks,
are another feature of Kanchenjunga.
Milam Glacier trek
It is situated at the base of the Himalayas at a height of 3872m; the glacier is a breathtaking
sight. Milam Glacier Trekking makes a idle trek route in Himalayas. The Milam Glacier
(3872m) lies at the base of the great Himalayan wall. It is fed by the Nanda Devi on the west,
and the Panchchuli and Kalabandar glaciers from the east. This mixed glacier system is the
source of the Goriganga River, and offers breathtaking views of an area that abounds in natural
beauty.
Nanda Devi Trek
Nanda Devi is the highest mountain situated completely within India. This classic trek takes us
across the picturesque meadows and valleys that border the western edge of the Nanda Devi
Sanctuary. During the trek there are many views of the surrounding peaks and the Kuari Pass

(7816m), Changabang (6864m), Doonagiri (7066m) and Kamet (7756m).
