Day hikes in the Himalayan region are easy walks compared to a trek that combine the best in viewing nature, landscapes, cultural and traditional aspects of the country.  Day Hikers set off early, enjoy their walks and return to the comforts of their hotels by the day's end.  Making it all the more enjoyable as visitors get to experience that not all get to do.  

 

Due to its geographical contours most urban centres have been linked since ages through foot trails. When touring larger towns in the urbanised centres one can enjoy day hikes along hidden trails that allow visitors who wish to enjoy a walk away from the popular tour places. The walking trails are often age old routes taken by traders and while travelling from village to village.  These are mostly gravelled or compacted mud paths, stone stairs walks through farmlands and village households.
