This stunning guide is an essential sourcebook for anyone contemplating a venture into India's wild and mighty Himalaya, taking the trekker and climber from the famous forests and rhododendrons of Sikkim on the borders of Bhutan, China and Myanmar. The wide variety of treks includes some newly charted expedition-style routes, while the peaks featured are chosen as a natural highpoint of trekking in a high-altitude region. In addition, there is information on trekking and climbing styles, ecological concerns and health and safety.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good one..., June 10, 2004
By "vishu81" (INDIA/USA) - See all my reviews
This is a good book containing details of 25 treks and some climbing in Indian Himalaya. Contains precise details - with beautiful photographs - of treks. List most of the books the treks mentioned here are of popular type - though definitely good enough for a beginner. Some tips about mountain photography, preserving ecology, good amount of info for foreign(though not as good as lonely planet) nationals. The reason why I bought the book was for photographs and it was worth it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Introduction to Indian Himalayas, January 31, 2002
By Kamal Limdi (Surat,India) - See all my reviews
This book is a superb guide to anyone planning treks/climbing in the indian himalayas.The layout is elegant ,cartography and maps are precise especially the strip maps .The details are what a trekker would normally want to know ,which enhances the value of the book manifold. So if you are a mountain lover and want to explore the Indian Himalayas get hold of this book.For others who are arm chair travellers ,you'll feel you are amidst the himalayas .
