| MOUNTAIN
EXPEDITIONS |
| |
Apex Adventure Tours utilizes
the services of expert qualified Instructors and
experienced climbers to help you climb that dream
peak in the Indian Western Himalayas. We assist
you from the beginning from selecting a peak and
a region, giving you details of the routes and the
number of days required for that specific expedition
and providing you the best support team, transport,
camp equipment and staff including porters and mules.
All Himalayan peaks require a permit from the Indian
Government which can be obtained from the Indian
Mountaineering Foundation in New Delhi. This nodal
agency also provides a Liaison officer and hires
out walkie-talkies for a nominal fee.
The best season for climbing in the Indian Western
Himalayas is from May to early October. Zanskar
and Ladakh do not experience the Indian monsoons
as they fall under the rain shadow region of the
Himalayas hence making for ideal expeditions in
the region during June, July, August and September.
We suggest you apply at least 5 months in advance
by contacting the Indian Mountaineering Foundation,
New Delhi and requesting the mandatory application
forms needed to be submitted for a mountain expedition.
Please ensure that the forms are filled in accurately
as mistakes could set back your permission by a
few months.
Apex Adventure Tours
will provide all ground support once you’re
application is approved by the IMF and ensure to
its maximum that your mountaineering expedition
turns out to be a grand success. Email us for a
detailed list of open peaks in the Himachal Pradesh,
Zanskar and Ladakh regions.
