With more than half of the Himalayas lying within it's borders, India
is an exciting place to explore and discover for a trekker or a hiking
enthusiast. The Indian Himalayas stretches from Ladakh in the west to
Sikkim in the east. It offers stunningly different scenery and cultures
in different regions, each with its own charm: Ladakh, Zanskar and Spiti,
with their unworldly moonlike landsape and distinctively Tibetan
culture; Himachal & Garwhal with their lovely meadows and rich
forest and colorful mountain folks; Sikkim with its garden-like mountain
slopes and untouched Buddhist culture. Of course, wherever you are, the
backdrop of the mighty Himalayas completes the scene.
