Himachal Pradesh is blessed with immense beauty. True to its name, the state lies in the lap of the Himalayas. This Indian state is in the heart of the Himalayas nestled between Ladakh one side and Uttarakhand on the other. The state has been a popular tourist destination for years due to its flawless landscape and scenic mountains. It’s a fantastic region for trekking with a handful of well trodden routes and numerous peaks between 6000 and 7000 meters. Access is via the hill stations of Shimla, Manali and Dharamsala. Regardless of your experience at trekking, Himachal’s trekking trails test your capability and limits while offering some of the best panoramic views of the Himalayan mountain range. Trekking in Himachal Pradesh has its own enchantment, thrill and timings. While winter has its own charm and appeal, monsoons are considered to be the ideal time to undertake most of the treks.
