With close to 16,000 trekkers per year, we are India’s largest trekking organisation — but there is more to Indiahikes than that. Indiahikes is primarily a trek documentation organization. We explore, write and document treks. We do this in great detail so that everyone can organize their own treks. Ideally, no one must need an organization like us to take them on treks. This is our philosophy. Today Indiahikes.com is the largest database of trek information in the country. Through 800 plus articles, a Youtube video series, and a podcast we cater to trekking interests of more than 1 lakh followers across Social Media. Our growth story over the last 10 years has set the standards for trekking in our country. Most trails in India, trekking processes, safety systems, and types of equipment have been introduced to Indian trekking by us. We are proud of our legacy. Green Trails - one of our core campaigns started in 2013, aims at leaving the mountains in a better condition than before. Through this mission, we bring down tonnes of garbage (2017 - 13 tonnes; 2016 - 6 tonnes). The garbage is then segregated and recycled into marketable products, generating revenues for locals. We also conduct Outdoor Education programs for students from India’s premier educational institutions. Since 2012, a credit based PGP course (Himalayan Mountain Challenge) is run for students of IIM (Indian Institute of Management) - Indore, Bangalore and Lucknow. The Hiking Club started in 2015 in schools across Bangalore is also one of our projects. We believe all children must trek.Children, are much more receptive to the world in their growing years. It is the perfect time to inculcate valuable lessons which stay for life. At Indiahikes we believe in futuristic ways to make trekking safer and more accessible to the general populace. Innovation serves as a major motivator for us. Do you want to be part of our journey as well? If Yes, take a look: https://indiahikes.com/working-with-indiahikes/
