It is astonishing to learn that the human race migrated from one continent to another when there were no means of communication, no helping hands, and most of them who left their home to a world unknown could never return back. In some ways, the Indians were one of the most avid
trekking tribes in the copper age when they explored new regions coming from Central Asia to northern Indian plains, and from there to the Indian Peninsula. Some of the legendry trekkers of Indian mythology like Indra (or Prurundara as he is called Rig Veda), Maharishi Agastya (the first A***n to cross the Vindhyas), and the wandering god Narada will always be remembered. He established four centers of Hinduism in the all the four corners of India. One of them was Badrinath in Garhwal Himalayas, and until today, it remains one of the most famous trekking routes in India. More than anything else, trekking gained popularly in India due to religion. The loftiness and beauty of the Himalayas made our forefathers believe that if there is any place where gods can reside, it is the Himalayas. This led to the establishment of many religious centers in the hills, the result of which is that even today thousands of devotees cross various hurdles to reach these places. Professional trekking began in India with the coming of English people who found the climate of the hills quite similar to those in their own country and decided to establish hill stations in the Himalayas and other mountain ranges in India. These hill stations acted as the base points from where new trek routes were explored and documented for the future generation trekkers. From those formative years many changes have taken place.
