Travelling Responsibly

Wonderful environment of the Himalayas is also an extremely fragile one. Increasing population density and number of travellers threatens to destroy the very beauty which attracts us in the first place. We are extremely environmentally conscious and aim to minimize our impact as much as possible. Our staff members are well motivated towards Eco-friendly practices. Our aim is to help protect and preserve this beautiful environment for future generations of travellers to enjoy.
