Review Note – Fachu Kandi Trek with Himalayan Shelters ✨
After experiencing the Pir Panjal trek with Himalayan Shelters last year, we had already decided that any trek we do in the future will be with this amazing team—and they proved us right once again on the Fachu Kandi trek.
From start to finish, everything was exceptionally well-organized. The hospitality, food, politeness, and overall care were top-notch, just like before. This time we were accompanied by two trek leads – Simran ji and Nithin bhai. Both were extremely humble, polite, and helpful throughout the journey. Simran ji led the way with confidence, while Nithin bhai ensured no one was left behind, all the while entertaining us with fun trivia about flora and fauna.
At camp, the hospitality was unmatched, with locals pitching in to make the experience even more memorable. And of course, the food deserves a special mention – it’s always one of the most delightful parts of trekking with this team.
We would like to thank Bachan Rana sir for founding and maintaining such a wonderful company. Another huge plus was the seamless transport facility—from airport to airport—which made logistics so easy for us.
We are more than happy to continue exploring with Himalayan Shelters and are already looking forward to our next trek with them. 🌿🏔️

Summary:
In Sept I did the Phulara Ridge trek with Himalaya Shelter. It was an incredible experience. They made the whole process very warm and exciting with true adventure. All staff were thorough professionals and jovial and caring. They knew when to give you space, when to push you, when to cajole you and when to rest you. Their equipment was clean and my guide was a great cook. I can't wait to go back out there with them. So excited to have found them!!!!
