With the declaration of COVID-19 as a Global Pandemic by the World Health Organization, we have decided to call off the treks from 20 March 2020 to 15 April 2020.

It is hard to restrict the adventurer inside one's heart, but to avoid the casualties happening, we decided to call off all the treks till mid-April. With the alarming increase in the cases of the Covid-19, we feel that traveling should be left out of the bucket list for a few weeks to avoid coming into the contact of unknown people or sources.

In line with the recent development, we had to take the step by suspending all the batches from 20 March 2020 to 15 April 2020 as a precautionary step into the safety of our trekkers.

Frequently Asked Questions.

We know there are lots of unanswered questions running into your mind regarding the trek, which we would love to hear and answer you. We have tried to answer some common queries we are facing from our trekkers.

1. I have booked a trek. What are the options?

There are two options in place for you:-

Option 1- Reschedule your suspended trek

You can easily opt-out for postponing your trek until May or June with no additional charges. I would also suggest you do the same, over time we would also get a clear view of the COVID-19 situation.

Knowing that you won't lose out on your money spent over your travel tickets, this would be your best option. Most of our trekkers have been doing the same over the past week, as it assures them that they can trek later in the year when the situation turns on positive for them.

With the present scenario, we would like to give you a choice of shifting to another trek, not just the one you're registered for.

Option 2 - Opt for a Trek Voucher

Many of our trekkers who have made their full payment or partial payment can also avail the option of trek voucher (between 20 March and April 16th), which have the following features:

You can avail vouchers for an extended period of 2 years/21 months from your date of cancellation, which allows you to use them for treks until December 2021.

Usually, the vouchers provided are non-transferable but under the special circumstances caused due to the breakdown of the COVID-19, we have made these vouchers transferable. Which gives you a chance to transfer the voucher to your friend or family member if you cannot trek due to some avoided circumstances or reasons.
