Win a Himalayan Trek with GIO Adventures Contest 2015:

GIO Adventures (est. 1999) is an Outdoors Adventure Company with a mission of making Himalayan destinations, not often found on regular maps, accessible to people who love discovering them. True to their mission, they have one of the largest collections I’ve seen so far, of Himalayan trek departures listed on their site. From something as offbeat as Parang La to something as popular as Hampta Pass, they can take you mostly anywhere in the whole gamut of Indian Himalayas. With their firm belief in keeping groups as small as 12, eco-friendly practices and world-class equipment, I highly recommend GIO Adventures for your next Himalayan adventure!

What do you win?:

First prize winner can pick any one trek from a list of four week-long treks below:
Hampta Pass:
trek is a popular trek that takes you from the lush green valleys of Kullu & Manali to the other is the semi-arid region of the Lahaul valley

Kuari Pass & Pangarchula Peak:
It is one of finest treks in the Indian Himalayas that takes you to a gorgeous region of Uttarakhand.

Chopta, Deoriatal, and Chandrashila Pea:
It is one of the most enchanting short treks(5 days) and is in the Garhwal region of Himalayas.

Kedar Kantha Summit Trek:
Kedar Kantha Summit Trek through snow-ridden dense forests and vast meadows makes for a perfect winter outdoor escape in the Himalayas.

Runner up can choose any one of the two 3-day treks below:
Nagtibba Trek:
It is a splendid weekend trek near Dehradun with stunning views of Himalayas and plenty of lovely campsites amidst meadows.

Triund Trek :
Triund Trek near Dharamshala is an easy trek in the lower Dhauladhars where you’ll climb a hill top just in front of the mighty ranges.

Now I know that many of you don’t prefer to head out on a Himalayan trek alone, so here’s something to sweeten the deal! If you win and choose to get a friend along, your friend is eligible to get a 35% discount on the trek fee.
