play

In the final episode of our India trilogy, we're journeying to Kashmir and through the Indian Himalayas.


Wild Frontiers founder Jonny Bealby explores Kashmir's history, wars, complexities, and his relationship with this region. Wild Frontiers started running tours to Kashmir in 2004 and has been successfully taking travellers to explore this region ever since.


Jonny is joined by Altaf Chapri, a hotelier in Srinagar and a friend of Wild Frontiers, and they discuss security in the valley and why it is advised against visiting (despite tourists being safe for many years). He runs Qayaam Gah and the Sukoon Houseboat in Srinagar and speaks about his love of Kashmir and the serenity and spiritual experience of staying on houseboats.


They also discuss Wild Frontiers' High Road to Kashmir group tour itinerary and its unmissable highlights, including Ladakh, Leh and Srinagar. Wild Frontiers India specialist Shalmali Rao Paterson speaks about Leh's unique culture and landscapes, Spiti Valley, Kumar, Darjeeling and the state of Sikkim's appeal, and walking and staying in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas.
