We have 2 fixed departures for the Dodital Hanumanchatti Trek this summer before the monsoon season.

May 21 - 26
June 04 -09

This trek comes highly recommended for a number of reasons. Beautiful dense himalayan forests, the mythical Dodi Lake, scenic himalayan villages still disconnected by road, up and close views of the high himalayas, endless meadows with a stunning himalayan backdrop and a mountain pass that makes you earn all of the above!

Let us know if you're interested. We will take a small group of trekkers to this remote region. Very few groups do this one and thats another reason we recommend it. The trek is also suitable for first-timers with some outdoor experience. Reach out to us and we will help you decide.

The Dhauladhars rise to above 4000 meters quite dramatically from the Kangra foothills, which are at roughly a 1000 meters above sea level. The Kareri Lake, located in these mountains, offers a beautiful adventure-escape for trekkers that can be comfortably completed in 3 days.

The Dharamshala airport, which is just a couple of hours away from the trailhead, provides immediate access for those short on time.

The experience of discovering the Himalayas, in the company of some of the biggest mountains in the world is an enriching adventure that is etched forever in your memory.

Planning a trek in remote and isolated places requires meticulous planning and careful ex*****on, backed by years of experience of the big mountains.

In 2016, Vivasvat and Aman came together to start Anthill Adventures with the idea of leading all treks and climbs themselves. This aspect is the vital difference to your adventure, ensuring that your experience has no loose ends.

Prior to AntHill, Vivasvat (Viv) had several years of experience in leading trips into the dense forests of central and northern India. The interaction of mountains and wildlife is his passion and his understanding of both these elements translates to a fuller experience for those who trek with us.

After completing his higher education Viv joined a National Outdoor Leadership program (NOLS, USA) on a month-long backpacking course in the Himalayas and then went on to get a diploma in outdoor education from NOLS, US. Viv lives in Delhi, India.

Aman has trekked extensively in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand and has undertaken several solo bicycle expeditions in the Indian Himalayas. He passion for mountain sports extends to skiing and paragliding. Aman is a certified mountaineer from the Atal Bihari Institute of Mountaineering and Allied Sports, an intermediate skier from the Indian Institute of Skiing & Mountaineering, Gulmarg and a Paragliding Pilot from the Paragliding Gurukul school. Aman resides in Bir, Himachal Pradesh in the north of India.

Viv and Aman are both certified Wilderness Advanced First Aid providers trained from the Hanifl Institute, Mussoorie, India affiliated with Aerie Backcountry, Montana, USA.

At AntHill Adventures, your Safety and Comfort are paramount and this is our DNA. Our treks also take into account 'Leave No Trace' practices, ensuring that we leave the mountains clean.

Small Owner - Led Groups - We limit the group size to 10 participants and provide a dedicated mountain guide for every 3-4 participants.

Carefully-planned itineraries: We help push your limits, but ensure you don’t bite more than you can chew.

Pre-trek guidance: One-on-one meetings help us make sure we set the right expectations and that you are well-prepared before your trek

The right equipment: High quality equipment that is well-suited to your trek.

Comfort: Handpicked resorts (before and after the trek), sumptuous food and polite and attentive drivers for a well-rounded holiday.
