Description

Mt. Satopanth can easily be called the gateway to the world of mountaineering in the Himalayas. This is not a tourist destination and not for trekkers. From here on you become a mountaineer instead of a trekker. It ain't cheap as there is no Quick fix in the world of mountaineering. You take your time, find the right window and climb the mountain with a more than capable team. If you have poor attitude or are used to luxuries in life try another operator. We spend more on safety than cutlery.
