Experience the rush of adrenaline in Uttarakhand's vibrant capital as you select some of the most difficult treks in Dehradun for your next holiday. You will find some of the most diverse trekking adventures that showcase India's natural beauty. 

Opt for the famous Nag Tibba trek that offers an exhilarating time climbing to about 10,000 feet amidst snow-capped mountains. Known as Serpent's Peak, it boasts rich biodiversity with oak and deodar forests, a glimpse into Gharwali culture, and sightings of exotic birds and wildlife. Venture further to George Everest Peak, where Sir George Everest's former home offers sweeping vistas of Doon Valley and the Himalayan peaks.
