Trekking in Kumaon & Garhwal

Personalized Services:
The trekking groups are usually small in number (15 - 21 students) ensuring everyone enough space on the treks to enjoy the solitude in the Himalayan wilderness. Besides, a guide ratio of 1:3 provides a more personalized service, ensuring specific needs of each participant is taken care of and a comforting sense of security.

A Taste of Vibrant Himalayan Lifestyle:
Characteristic Himalayan villages dot the treks. Typical architecture, a chance to savour local food and overnight in a village house with the warmth of the local family hospitality make the trek an experience.

WILDRIFT's Service Team: The guides, porters and cooks at Wildrift belong to the Himalayan region and have a wide experience in trekking and climbing and a thorough knowledge about the area and its challenges. Also, they have been formally trained in mountaineering and rock climbing at the Nehru Institute of Mountaineering, Uttarkashi and The Nainital Mountaineering Club.

A Concern for Detail and Equipment:
All programmes are meticulously designed and each detail worked out at the outset itself. Preliminary briefing and a little training assure a comfortable trek with all its excitements. All equipment being used on the treks is regularly updated and checked for quality.

Safety and Emergency Evacuation:
Safety of all participants is our primary concern. The staff on the trek is trained in basic first aid and common high altitude related medical problems. All treks are registered with the local district administration. Evacuation in emergencies is handled by the Indian Air Force through the district administration (District Magistrate) of the relevant area. Communication and overland rescue and evacuation of casualties are a built-in part of the expedition plan.
