Namaste, adventurers!
Spring’s bursting in the Himalayas, and the mountains are already buzzing with HAL action. Right now, Navindra’s pushing his limits on the Everest Three Passes, a solo fastpack that’s pure grit and glory.
Meanwhile, Srijan, Tobias, and Jonas are in Langtang NP, linking the valley to the sacred Gosaikunda lakes. And me? I’m counting down the minutes till I escape Kathmandu for the Tsum and Nubri trek in Manaslu. The mountains are calling, and I have to answer.
This summer, Srijan and I are going full-on nomad in Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. We’re setting up a makeshift basecamp, living the Silk Road life, all in prep for the Pamir Fastpack (July 12-28, 2025). This isn’t just a trip; it’s a deep dive into ancient trails and forgotten landscapes.
But the adventure doesn’t stop there. August sees us back in the wild heart of Dolpo (August 9-24, 2025), a land beyond the giants of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri. Then, it’s Everest again, traversing three 5,000m+ passes. And finally, the grand finale: the legendary Manaslu Fastpack.
These aren’t just trips; they’re shared odysseys. They’re about finding your tribe on the trail, discovering hidden routes that test your endurance, and tapping into that wild spirit we all carry. And I’m inviting you to join our pack. Are you ready to step into the unknown? Let’s chase those horizons.
