Himalayan Experience with Village Walk
Suggested Itinerary of North India
DELHI WELCOME
Delhi is a city unlike any other and the perfect introduction to this land of magical contrasts. With a private guide, you'll enjoy an insider’s tour of the splendours of both Old and New Delhi including the Qutab Minar, Humayun’s Tomb and the legendary Red Fort.
ALMORA HILLS AND TEMPLES
A move to the hills and gentle breezes of Almora, where the scenery will take your breath away. A leisurely walk to Chittai Temple leads you through pine forests and valleys in the footsteps of the devotees of Golu Devta, the God of Justice.
VILLAGE WALKING – DEORA, ALAI AND JWALABANJ
A four-day village walk into the heart of the enchanting Uttaranchal hills offers a first-hand experience of Himalayan village life. By day you'll pass waterfalls, temples, forests and fields; take in spectacular mountain vistas, cross streams and explore valleys. In the evenings, a warm welcome and a clean fresh room in a village house await you. Relax with a sundowner, share your experiences over a delicious dinner and find peace under a starry sky. Porters carry your luggage each day and the walks are an average of 8 kilometres of varying gradients.
CORBETT NATIONAL PARK
Your village walk is followed by a two-night stay at the renowned Corbett National Park. Here, over 500 square kilometres, you might see elephants, tigers, leopards, deer or wild boar. A plethora of bird life peppers the sky, while in the river and reservoir crocodiles bask.
GLASSHOUSE ON THE GANGES
Three nights at the Glasshouse on the Ganges .... before your journey home.
