About Company
Our founders, Ganga Rana and Prakash Rana founded Discovery Hike over ten years ago with one simple belief: “Everybody Must Trek.” They hoped to accomplish this by disseminating knowledge about treks and instilling a positive attitude toward trekking in India.
With over 15,000 trekkers joining the Discovery Hike Experience each year, we are now India’s largest trekking group.
When you go on a Discovery Hike trek, you’ll find that we’re still playing with ways to reduce our carbon footprint. It’s necessary to come up with new ways to complete repetitive tasks. We still strive to find greener options, whether it’s the way we handle food waste or the material we use to wash utensils.
Our Vision
We want to put in new trekking practices to take trekking in India to the next level as an organisation dedicated to the sport. We do this by organizing treks where you can learn about the Discovery Hike Experience.
Our treks also expose us to mountain issues, which we try to solve. Microspikes, dome tents, and waterproof footwear, for example, have all been introduced to Indian trekking. We have a long way to go, and we’d love to have you along for the ride!
We provide a range of hands-on learning experiences for children, families, colleges, and businesses. Experts lead these programs, which aim to enhance emotional, physical, and spiritual growth through hands-on learning in the great outdoors.
