Our story

Local roots.
A wider world to explore.

Manu Adventures India is a trekking and travel company based in Bhagsu Nag, McLeod Ganj, Dharamshala.

The Dhauladhar mountains are at the heart of what we do. Forest paths, mountain camps, village trails and high passes shape the journeys we help travellers plan.

Our work brings together guided treks, camping, local day trips and holidays through North India. Some travellers come for a first walk to Triund; others want a longer mountain journey or time to explore India’s cultural places.

We start with your interests, dates and walking experience, then help you understand the route and arrangements. The aim is a trip you can look forward to with a clear idea of what lies ahead.
