Adventure In India
Trekking
India
For
those fascinated by the unexplored, the mountain ranges of India
offer breathtaking, enthralling trekking routes.
In the vast amphitheatre of the Indian Himalayas
and Karakorams, there are limitless possibilities for trekking,
mountaineering, skiing, and river rafting. Within this alluring
arena, the Garhwal
and Kumaon
regions, occupy the central place, with special points of interest
for the trekker.
Spectacular
views apart, the Himalayan foothills are just
ideal for trekking in
india, offering energetic out-door people a different
and exciting option for a holiday. The Garhwal and Kumaon regions
of Uttaranchal
are the most popular destinations for trekkers,
though Chamba and Manali in Himachal Pradesh, and Ladakh and Zanskar
in Jammu and Kashmir, have interesting trekking routes
as well.
Darjeeling
and Sikkim in
the east also have some trekking routes. While
trekking as a sporting activity does not require
prior training or practice, except that the trekker
should be in good physical condition, there are certain dos and
don'ts which should be adhered to. Routes should be carefully
chosen, as some treks may be more difficult, or may involve high
altitude trekking. It is generally advisable
to be accompanied by a local guide. Ensure that the pace of the
trek is not too rapid, since this could result in exhaustion,
and would in any case not be enjoyable.
The
adventure season, which till recently, was confined to the summer
months, now covers almost the entire year, including winter. This
has been made possible by improved equipment and transportation,
and the availability of year-round bookings in areas, hitherto,
considered inaccessible. Moreover, winter treks are gaining popularity
as a means of 'getting away' to relatively lower altitudes.
