View documentThe Himalayan Hikes is based in Uttarkashi, Uttarakhand. We help you explore our mountain region through guided treks, spiritual journeys and personal trip planning.
We are not just a travel company; we are a community shaped by passion, purpose, and a deep love for the mountains. At the heart of our story are Shri Gopal Gusain and Shri Bharat Singh Gusain—revered mountaineers, nature enthusiasts, and sons of the Garhwal Himalayas. Their lives were devoted to exploring the highlands and sharing their spirit of adventure and respect for nature. Through their journeys, they inspired others to look beyond the familiar and discover the beauty, strength, and stillness of the mountains.
In the 1970s, Shri Gopal Gusain lost his life during the Gangotri I Expedition, in a region that remains close to our hearts and part of the journeys we guide today. His memory lives on in the values that shape our work: courage, humility, and a lasting bond with the Himalayas. Every trek is an opportunity to honor that legacy—to welcome people into these mountains with care, help them experience their beauty, and nurture the same sense of wonder and respect that defined the lives of those who came before us.
To offer authentic, eco-conscious trekking experiences that support local communities while protecting the fragile Himalayan ecosystem.

Credentials and partnerships that support the way we care for every journey.
