In addition to great multi-day trekking tours, you can also climb mountains in India. In the Indian Himalayan region there are countless mountain peaks of every level, many of them are even unclimbed and nameless. The 5000 to 7000 metre high peaks range from easy trekking peaks to challenging technical climbing tours on rock and ice and can be climbed in the form of a traditional Himalayan expedition, but also in alpine style.
A healthy physical and mental condition, as well as physical and mental fitness are an absolute prerequisite for mountain ascents!
