"Join our treks, thoughtfully crafted for deeply personal mountain experiences with unwavering focus on individual care, safety, and a genuine love for the Himalayas"
Every trail we walk is a carefully chosen path into the heart of the Himalayas — not just to witness their grandeur, but to feel them under your skin and soul. Our treks are designed not as bucket list checkmarks, but as life-affirming journeys, where the silence of alpine forests, the crackle of campfire stories, and the first glimpse of dawn over snow peaks transform the ordinary into something unforgettable. At Planethimalayas, we believe a mountain journey is deeply personal — and that belief runs through everything we do.
We keep our groups small and intimate so we can focus on you — your pace, your concerns, your joy. From pre-trek guidance to trail-side support, our experienced trek leaders walk with intention, offering safety without compromise and attention without intrusion. Whether you're a first-time trekker or a seasoned explorer, our team ensures you feel held, heard, and never hurried. It’s this deep care that turns strangers into friends and walks into memories.
We don’t just operate in the Himalayas — we live and breathe them. From respecting mountain communities to following Leave No Trace ethics, our treks are shaped by a love that’s humble, local, and real. Our itineraries blend raw beauty with responsible travel, ensuring you not only see these mountains — but truly connect with them. With Planethimalayas, your trek becomes more than a trip — it becomes part of your story.

I made friendship with the mountains through Kamal sirs experience. The moment i met him at my last trek at Kedarkantha, I was impressed by his mountaineering knowledge and friendly nature that this year too (to Tungnath) and every year hereafter I am going to partner him to a new peak and new experiences in those journeys. Kudos to Planethimalayas for the exceptional work in making the love of mountains more accessible and enjoyable.

I did the Kashmir Great Lakes trek with kamal. This was such an unforgettable experience. Kamal is such an amazing guide. He told us so many interesting facts, I had beautiful deep talks with him about the mountains and listened to many of his stories about the experiences he's had while trekking. he's such a genuine and pure soul. I was the only female in the team, but not once I felt uncomfortable or left out. Everyone was increrdibly respectful and nice. We were allowed to walk on our own pace and didn't feel rushed or pushed. Everone can do the trek as they want, in the way they want. He respects you and really goes out of his way to make you enjoy the most. Till this day he's still a dear friend of mine and I hope to have the priviledge to go to the mountains again, together with him. If you're planning to do a trek, definitely do it with Kamal, he a 100% will make sure this trip is something you'll never forget about.

I had some nerves about going on a trek solo but Kamal took excellent care of me and made sure I felt safe and looked after. He was able to customize the trek to my needs and we went on lots of side quests to explore the area. Kamal is very knowledgable and has some fantastic stories to tell, so was the best company the entire time – it felt like I had friends adventuring with me! Thanks again :)
