We have trekked in the Himalayan tranquility
So can you!
How it Started
In 2020, Mamta Pharswan from Chamoli Garhwal quit her metro lifestyle and traveled to her village to connect to her roots. After years of education and working experience, she wanted to give back and do something for her community. She started writing, filming, and sharing her trekking experiences with a mission:
Sustainable Trekking for a Greener Tomorrow.
Fueled by her desire to make a difference, she organized her inaugural trekking expedition to Kedarkantha with her colleagues, which was well-documented in a blog post that garnered interest from around the world. One trek led to another, ultimately paving the way for Uttarakhandbook.
We took on the challenge of providing the best and most affordable treks while remaining dedicated to responsible and mindful travel. Uttarakhandbook is committed to positively impacting the environment, the tourism sector, and the local community by emphasizing ethical and sustainable practices. We believe that the most memorable trek stays in our hearts for a lifetime.
Vision
Our vision for Uttarakhandbook is to establish ourselves as a community platform dedicated to showcasing Uttarakhand's rich culture and diverse heritage and guiding trekkers through its breathtaking natural beauty. We aspire to inspire readers and travelers by delivering engaging and insightful content that truly connects them to the heart and soul of the Himalayan Devbhumi (The Land of Gods).
Through the art of storytelling and sharing of valuable knowledge, we aim to cultivate a deeper appreciation for Uttarakhand's unique identity, while also promoting sustainable tourism practices that benefit both the local community and the environment. Trekking with us is not just about the regular tourist experience. We help you write personalized experiences with authentic cultural significance unique to the hills and people of Garhwal and Kumaon. Ultimately, we seek to connect people and create a vibrant community of individuals passionate about exploring and celebrating the Pahadi life.
