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.
