Himalayas are the greatest mountain range
on earth, a virtually unbroken wall of rock stretching 1,800 miles from the
borders of Afghanistan to southwest China. It remains the world's most
majestic natural barrier, a magnificent wilderness that has shaped the
history and politics of Asia to this day.
Himalayan peaks have
always fired the imagination of mountain climbers. A mountaineering
expedition is a complete adventure. Some of our expeditions require no
previous mountaineering experience, whilst others require good preparation.
Our expedition grading and details will help you choose the best
alternative. You can always write or call us for further information on any
of the Himalayan peaks on offer.
