Trek through the Himalaya and experience the full sweep of the world's greatest mountain range, from the glaciers of the Karakoram and the sacred kora around Mount Kailash in Tibet to the Everest and K2 base camps, the Annapurna and Manaslu Circuits, and the remote kingdom of Bhutan. Spanning 2,400km across Pakistan, India, Nepal, Tibet, and Bhutan, the Himalayas offer a lifetime of trekking adventures across the most spectacular mountain terrain on earth.
A large-format planning companion and source of inspiration, this celebrated Cicerone collection brings together 20 classic and lesser-known Himalayan treks, each written by an expert author with first-hand knowledge of the route. Rather than a conventional guidebook with detailed route descriptions, it provides a rich overview of each trek, capturing what makes it special and giving you everything you need to choose and begin planning your Himalayan adventure.
- Choose from 20 treks spanning the full length of the Himalayan chain, from K2 and Concordia and the Snow Lake glacier trek in Pakistan to the Lunana Snowman Trek and Gangkar Punsum base camp in Bhutan, with classic routes alongside remote expedition treks and sacred journeys.
- Experience the world's greatest mountains on foot, with treks to or around Everest, K2, Kangchenjunga, Makalu, Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Manaslu, Nanga Parbat, Nanda Devi, and the world's highest unclimbed peak, Gangkar Punsum in remote Bhutan.
- Discover lesser-known Himalayan classics, including the Zanskar Dream Trek, Inner and Lower Dolpo, the Dhaulagiri Circuit, the Kangchenjunga Singalila Ridge and Goecha La, the Everest Kangshung Face approach, and the Mount Kailash Kora in Tibet.
- Plan your Himalayan adventure with confidence using graded route overviews covering what makes each trek special, typical duration and difficulty, access, and practical considerations, with routes graded from moderate to expedition level to help you choose the right challenge.
- Prepare thoroughly with introductory sections covering trekking in the Himalaya, trekking styles, when to go, safety in the mountains, and minimum impact trekking across the diverse cultures and landscapes of the Himalayan region.
- Benefit from the expertise of a team of leading Himalayan authors, including Kev Reynolds, Bart Jordans, Steve Razzetti, Siân Pritchard-Jones, Bob Gibbons, Chris Townsend, Stephen Goodwin, and Steve Berry, each writing about the treks they know best.
An essential addition to the shelf of anyone who dreams of the Himalaya, this trusted Cicerone planning companion is the perfect starting point for adventure in the world's greatest mountain range. Let a team of Himalayan experts inspire your next great journey.
