Description

Join #TeamDEBRA in 2026 for the Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek.

From the madness of Delhi, travel off the beaten path, to the beauty and tranquillity of the Indian Himalaya. This unique expedition is the perfect introduction to India. 

This challenge combines awesome Himalayan trekking with a visit to India’s exiled Tibetan community. The trek begins and ends at the heart of the world’s highest mountain range in Dharamsala, where the Dalai Lama and the centre of the Tibetan community are located.

The expedition follows the Uhl River, through rhododendron and evergreen forests, taking in Hindu settlements and isolated Buddhist monasteries. This hidden route is rarely trekked and, as a result, remains an area of pristine and unspoiled beauty.

Challenge Overview

  • Trek in the Indian Himalayas
  • Witness spectacular mountain scenery on this 5-day trek
  • Explore Hindu temples, Buddhist monasteries and Tibetan Life
  • A route rarely trekked, resulting in an area of pristine and unspoiled beauty.
