Uttarakhand

Uttarakhand brings together the walking landscapes that make the Himalaya so compelling: high meadows, forested valleys, glacial lakes and villages beneath mountain peaks. Juniper Outdoor specialises in curated Uttarakhand treks and active holidays across Garhwal and Kumaon, with journeys chosen for the experience of being outdoors rather than a list of places to collect. There are routes for travellers drawn to open grasslands, those who love lakes and forests, and those seeking a sustained mountain challenge. The variety allows a holiday to begin with your interests instead of a standard itinerary.

Dayara Bugyal and Kuari Pass reveal meadow landscapes and Himalayan views, while Har Ki Dun offers a valley journey combining villages and mountain scenery. Treks to Ruinsara Tal, Maldaru Lake and Saru Tal bring alpine lakes into focus. Obra Gad and Pilangana Gad introduce more remote valleys within Juniper's collection, and the Nanda Devi East and Nanda Kot basecamp journeys speak to walkers drawn towards Kumaon's mountain terrain. These are separate adventures with different demands, not experiences to squeeze into a single trip. We encourage you to explore the original itineraries and choose the landscape and level of activity that feel right.

Our approach to bespoke Uttarakhand holidays is personal and considered. A private trip can create time for family and friends to walk together, share the outdoors and enjoy a wholesome escape from everyday noise. We handpick experiences that make room for discovery and favour quieter settings wherever the chosen route permits, without treating public trails as exclusive spaces. Whether you prefer a meadow trek, a lake-focused journey or a longer expedition, the aim is depth rather than hurry.
