Welcome to Himalayan Society's’ Adventure & Leisure Trips and Experience the true adventure of a lifetime...


 

These magical peaks have mesmerised mankind for centuries, They are home to a unique culture and history unrivalled in the world. Untouched by the western world, isolated kingdoms of ancient cultures have thrived beneath towering mountains shrouded in mist, blanketed in glaciers and carpeted by alpine meadows. Visit with local people whose broad welcoming smiles draw you into their land of unequalled ethnic and cultural diversity. Hike along trails carved into terraced hillsides by ancient traders, herdsmen and local villagers.

Retrace the steps of famous conquerors and look in awe upon serene monasteries high in the mountains. Visit a people whose daily lives are steeped in the calm, ancient wisdom of Buddhism and Hinduism. Life continues in these magnificent mountains much as it has for centuries. This timeless land is one of spiritual calm, extraordinary scenery, unique wildlife, daunting cultural heritage and famed hospitality.

Please join us as we take take you for a first hand look at the Himalaya.

Himalayan Society was created to cater to people from all ‘walks of life’ without being ‘too’ adventurous and steering clear off trips that are too difficult to tackle. Although our trips are more relaxed and flexible, they still lead you to some of the remote, unspoiled locations with the same professiperators of the Himalayan regions of Pakistan, India, Tibet and Nepal with the same philosophy and commitment to offer the beauty and attraction of the Himalaya.

Not only the sights of the mountains themselves, but also the surroundings of friendly people, picturesque villages and variety of culture and tradition which exemplify many of the attributes that have been forgotten or lost due to headlong rush for progress and developments.

We intend to exchange ideas and skills in various fields other than ‘tourism’ as the whole territory is bounded by similar environment and economic order within a broad common geographic location that encompasses a region of deep cultural and religious traditions and a huge diversity of people. At the same time, environmental concern has been taken into consideration with the effects of conservation measures on the rural population and the economic effects of tourism.

Trekkers and Mountaineers as well as tourist must ensure they minimize the impact on the environment with more biodegradable products and encourage the local lodges and trekking outfits to use kerosene for heating and cooking rather than wood fire which has taken a heavy toll on deforestation.

Together we hope to bring some of the underprivileged people of Himalayan region little closer with the social and economic ties and try to look beyond its political boundaries, religion and ethnic order simply to join hands to restore the human dignity and faith which are the basic essence for survival and the continuity of our future generation. We hope some of you will join hands or contribute in your own special ways to create a ‘society’ within these rugged mountainous terrain and let the people of the region earn an earnest livelihood as they have done so for many generation with a free will and a fair roaming sprite . . . Though Himalayan Society was incorporated fairly recently in 2000, it is managed and run by a dedicated and well-experienced team of office and field staff whose profound individual experiences in the trade go well back over two decades.

We offer well-designed and researched programs for all types of visitors and hikers, at the same time protecting and preserving the precarious culture and environment
