First Steps

What was the force that impelled you to mountains ?

....."Uncertainty".....

-By Saurabh Jain, Founder at White Peaks Adventures

Trekking in India is more than climbing, joyfulness ,paranomic views and wilderness experience. It is also an art, a challenge, feeling of uncertainty , risk and a true hardship. Those who are drawn to mountains can find themselves in exhilarating, completeness, irresistible and sometimes frustrating too.

Distant views of mountains may speak of adventure, but they seldom more than hint at the joys and hardship that awaits. Before entering into the Himalayas you must be prepared for the totality of nature -- storms as well as soft breezes, tangled bushes as well as alpine flowers , biting insects as well as singing birds, moments of silence as well as glimpse of disasters.
