Who are We?
Welcome to the Himalayatra: the land of adventure, legends and of the Himalayas spirit.
We are a community of travelers, explorers, narrators and fans of the mighty Himalayan mountains. We are driven by our single yet strong mission of inspiring, informing, and creating connections between other travel like-minded people based on the deep-proven stories, helpful travel guides, and cultural insights of the entire region that can be counted as one of the most impressive in the world.
What is so unique about Himalayatra?
We are not a typical travel blog: we are a community project to the core of the Himalayas. Planning next travel, searching destinations or simply just looking forward to a new idea? Himalayatra is your fair weather friend.
What we pledge is sincerity. We do not believe in the clickbaits and second-hand information. Each of the pieces is carefully cultivated based on real experience and sincere observations.
Our Story
The company was founded by young people filled with love to nature, culture, and adventures in the Himalayas. A small group of friends, who wandered their way around misty valleys, took beautiful sunrises, and sang stories by campfires, has actually become a larger thing, a bright online community that all have heeded the call of something they cannot resist, the Himalayas.
When we traveled between Leh and Lachung, and between Kinnaur and Kedarnath we realized that not everything was magical about the mountains, but also about the people, and the foundations they had, and the silence in communication between fellow travelers. It was at this point we became determined to make something permanent out of our experiences, something to share, something to be inspired and to grow with each other.
Our Work
We are convinced that peoples love real storytelling and immersive experience at Himalayatra. Using our blog, social media platforms and online community, we bring the Himalayas closer to you with:
On-hand Authentic Travel Guides
Whether in the established trekking areas or in the lesser-known countries, our guides are full of handy hints, local knowledge, and off-the-beaten track tips-written by people that have been there.
Adventure Stories
Explore the motivating true stories of other adventures. It may be a difficult hiking by oneself or a hike to an isolated village together with a family, but every tale has something to bring.
Cultural Explorations
The Himalayas are remarkable not only in their snow-covered mountains but also in the diversity of culture, language, festivals, and traditions in them. Our content brings out these aspects extensively.
Photography & Art
The beauty of the Himalayas is raw and wild so we carry photo essays, travel paintings and collections of galleries to be able to express it better than the words.
Eco and Response Travel
We also support sustainable travel and would like to create awareness of sustainable tourism practices in mountainous areas that are fragile eco-systems.
Join the Journey
We welcome you into the Himalayatra community. It does not matter whether you would like to share your experience, ask advice about a future expedition or you would just like to discover amazing culture and nature of the Himalaya from your computer screen-welcome, the world needs to know about your experience.
Together we can explore secret paths, honor mountain cultures and be amazed by the Himalayas.

The Team
Himalayatra as a company is backed by the enthusiastic outfit of the adventurers/writers/photographers/and those interested in culture; a bunch of individuals who eat and breathe mountains. All members have a different viewpoint, such as the solo-traveller who has slept by the stars to the local tour guide who knows a secret pathway.
Combined we create a tapestry of Himalayan moments that is as diverse as the mountains themselves.
Our Vision for the Future
As we continue to grow, our vision is to make Himalayatra a leading platform for Himalayan travel, culture, and conservation. We aim to partner with local communities, support sustainable tourism initiatives, and create more in-depth content that educates and empowers travelers. The Himalayas are evolving, and so are we—guided by respect for nature, a love for storytelling, and a desire to make every journey meaningful.
