From the towering peaks of the Himalayas to the lush jungles of the Western Ghats, India’s varied landscapes provide a playground for adventure junkies and the gentler active traveller alike. Whether it’s scaling peaks, navigating rapids, or exploring remote villages, adventure travel in India promises unforgettable experiences that combine adrenaline, natural beauty, and cultural discovery. I work with some of the best adventure providers in the country, the below is just a small selection of the adventures available:

• Trekking and mountaineering: popular routes like the Roopkund Trail and Chadar Trek challenge even the most seasoned hikers.
• White-water rafting in the Ganges and Zanskar rivers offers a rush of adrenaline amidst breathtaking scenery.
• Cycling opportunities start with morning city tours, which operate way before rush hour to cross county journeys.
• Horse safaris on the indigenous Marwari horse allow you to explore the deserts, villages and culture of Rajasthan whilst staying in charming little off beat palaces. 
• The deserts of Rajasthan invite visitors to embark on thrilling camel safaris, immersing themselves in the vibrant culture of the region.
• For wildlife enthusiasts, national parks like Jim Corbett and the parks of Madhya Pradesh and Ranthambore provide the chance to spot majestic tigers and a plethora of other wildlife including leopard and one-horned rhino. Some even allow walking safaris, boating safaris and night drives. 
• India’s coastline offers water sports such as surfing in Goa, scuba diving in the Andaman Islands, and paragliding in Bir Billing, Himachal Pradesh.
• The stark landscapes of Ladakh and Spiti Valley are perfect for off-road biking and jeep safaris.

Cultural immersion is also a key component of adventure travel in India, we encourage stays and engagement with local communities during all of our adventure expeditions.
