Making Meaningful Connections
Walking Holidays in the Indian Himalayas
Against the dramatic backdrop of the great high peaks, enjoy inspirational walking and hiking holidays from village to village
The best Himalayan walking holidays
Walking in the Himalayas is one of life’s great experiences. No mountains can match their beauty and majesty. With Village Ways, you hike from village to village, led by a local guide, staying in welcoming village homestays, enjoying warm, natural hospitality and home cooking. Choose from a range of inspirational routes in two regions of the Indian Himalayas, with options from gentle walks to rewarding hikes.
Deep in the heart of the Kumaon mountains lies the Binsar Wildlife Sanctuary, rich in bird and animal life. Here, the walking is flexible and open to everyone, along terraced fields and magical, ancient forest paths. Further north, just a few miles from the borders with Tibet and Nepal, charming, self-contained communities are spread along the Saryu and Pindar Valleys . Towering Himalayan peaks, alpine-like pastures, magnificent, leg-stretching walks and hill-side villages – these special places are our dream vision of the Himalaya, with the great high peaks so close.
