Ibex Hikes, earlier Adventures Unlimited, was born with us few passionate trekkers and environmentalists coming together to share our passion for the mountains with our friends and those with a love of nature. Over the last 10 years, thousands of people from different walks of life have chosen to walk with us into the wilderness to experience life anew. Our team of well-trained, qualified and equipped members has helped them make these experiences memorable and there are those who have fallen under the charm of the mountains for life.

All round the year, we organize a number of treks, both in the Himalayas and the Sahyadris of varying grades suitable for different age-groups. We have extended our sphere to include activities allied to trekking to give our guests a more fulfilling understanding and experience of nature.

In any activity we take up, utmost importance is given to the safety of the participants and their needs. But in doing so, we also keep in mind that our idea is to promote alternative, sensitive, eco-tourism. Thus, we ensure none of our activities cause any harm to the environment.

We all have different reasons for exploring the mountains and wilderness. Our team of trekkers and instructors understand your approach and help you plan a trek that would suit you. This year again, we have planned a number of treks and activities and we urge you to take a trip with us to the lush green hills of the Sahyadris or the snowy peaks of the Himalaya. The few days spent in the lap of nature are something you cherish for a lifetime, as we have experienced. It is a wonderful chance to bond with your loved ones and new friends alike. We promise to make this journey memorable for you!
