We believe there is more to winter in the Himalayas than skiing & ice climbing. If you love hiking in the summer, then this is the dreamiest introduction to the Himalayas in the winter. Snowshoeing is a fantastic way to appreciate the spectacular snowy landscapes at your own pace and comfort. It opens up a range of hiking possibilities in the Himalayas in winter. The Hampta Valley in winters is a surreal experience, the whole valley is draped in a blanket of snow and is completely isolated and wild. Situated at approx. 2700m, Sethan village is an excellent base to explore the breathtaking Hampta valley on foot. Our team of professional guides will teach you how to use snow shoes before taking you out on some stunning hikes through beautiful snow-covered forests and high ridges.

What to expect
Any trip rated as a 'Beginner Trek' is an ideal first step into the world of trekking in the Himalaya. The trips are short - generally under a week - in moderate altitudes with gradual altitude gain. A typical day will involve 4-5hrs of hiking on mountainous trails with an odd day over 6hrs. Most beginner treks in the Indian Himalaya are camping trips where overnight accommodation will be in tents. You will be accompanied by our camping and kitchen staff throughout the trip. In Nepal, all our stay and accommodation on the trail will be in tea-houses.
This trek suits individuals looking for their maiden trek in the Himalayas or families which want to introduce their young ones to trekking.
