Himalaya

Adventure Holidays to The Himalayas

The Himalaya are the largest and, arguably, most beautiful mountain range in the world. Every single moment here is breathtaking. For many, they are synonymous with Nepal, but vast tracts of this magnificent range form the northern borders of India. In fact they stretch across six nations: Bhutan, China, India, Nepal, Pakistan and Afghanistan. They are the source of three of the world's major river systems, the Indus basin, the Ganga-Brahmaputra basin and the Yangtze basin. And from Ladakh in the northwest through to Darjeeling and Sikkim in the east, these beautiful mountains offer a diversity of scenery and culture unmatched anywhere. Everywhere you turn colourful prayer flags flutter, and all along the chain untouched villages, remote shrines and monasteries abound.

The Himalaya are home to 9 out of 10 highest mountains on earth, including the legendary Mount Everest and represent the adventure of a lifetime. Challenge yourself on the trails to Everest Base Camp, cycle high passes through Tibet and Nepal, head out in search of one of the most endangered cats in the world - the majestic snow leopard - in Ladakh, or simply immerse yourself in the spirituality of this epic mountain kingdom on a cultural adventure.
