Nanda Ghunti Adventures is a homegrown initiative led by Bhuvan Singh Bisht who is an experienced trek and pilgrimage guide. Bhuvan lives in village Kuling, just ahead of village Lohajung, on the route to Roopkund, the mystery lake of Uttarakhand. Bhuvan and his men provide all facilities for trekking in the interiors of Uttarakhand Himalaya such as guide services, camping equipment such as tents
, sleeping bags, cooking bandobast, boots, headlights, trekking poles etc. They also arrange bookings and government clearances as well as porters, helpers, rations and just about everything that an honourable trekker would need. (If you're looking for a foot masseuse, you'd better take a chopper ride instead. Or go for a cable ride in Mussoorie.) The people behind Nanda Ghunti are guys who love doing what they do for a living. They tell you stories along the way. They become friends rather than 'paid staff'. They open their homes to you. They look after you all the way up and down and never let you out of sight for a minute. And, they also kick your butt if you start acting like a cowboy. The mountain is unforgiving and one must always be respectful of it. They know that pretty well and they'll let you know it too. So what are we talking about here. We're saying give us a chance to show you the magnificent beauty of the wild upper Himalaya. Give us a chance to make your journey a truly rewarding experience. Give us a chance to give back to the mountain, the forest and the river that gives life to us all. And last but not the least, give us a chance to stay back and earn a living where we belong. Or we'll end up serving chai at an 'Uttarakhand Tea Stall' by a traffic signal in the city that's killing you. Please call Bhuvan Singh Bisht at the mobile numbers given. He's a good chap and charges very reasonable fees. Unless you want Penne Al Funghi with basil
and meatballs at 16,000 feet.
