Explore some stunning village trails
Walk from village to village on easy yet beautiful trails in the foothills of the Himalayas
On your holiday would you rather drive from city to city, or walk from village to village? If the answer is the latter, have a look at this lovely gentle walking circuit in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas. The scenery is simply beautiful, local people greet you with a friendly namaste as you cross paths, and you get to stay overnight in lovingly restored traditional village houses.
Kumaon is a green hilly region of the Himalayas bordering with Nepal. Walking in these areas is really the best way to get a feel for rural India. On the three full days of hiking, the average walking time is about 4 hours, but go at your own pace – there is plenty time to stop for lunch or to have a rest in small village tea shops and temples.

Our Difference
The Far & Wild Community...
We think that the best people to talk about an experience are those directly linked to it. Our website and brochures let the ‘real experts’ show their stuff… local experts, travellers & industry insiders. Look out for the coloured markers all around the site... they mean that you are reading something contributed directly by a person from one of these different parts of the community we are part of.
The best memories aren’t simply places and hotels, they are made up of experiences and people… so we connect with local communities, and strive for sustainable travel to make your holiday special
