It was my first time experience of going on a trip /trek with such group and initially I was bit unsure as earlier I have travelled a lot on my car, solo, with friends n families n even my friends were insisting me to in our car but I wanted to experiment and I m glad I did.. It was hard to choose from so many options but I m glad I choose Alpines..(We did 'Velas trip' on 12th-13th April) It was almost on time, warm n fun experience.. And I would like to be a part of their future treks /trips for sure. Thanx to the team involved and special mention of Snehal Walunj who lead the trip in a very professional manner and she did hell of job to accommodate n adjust everyone with such a varied group of people from all the corners of Pune n around! It was a fun memorable time with them n I ll recommend everyone to give it a try.

Experience DNA
Alpine Trekkers is that classic Pune-based trekking squad started by hardcore mountaineers. They run everything from quick weekend monsoon treks in the Sahyadris to serious Himalayan expeditions. Expect a no-nonsense, highly active vibe with a crowd mostly made up of young IT folks and students from Pune and Mumbai. It’s budget-friendly, sweaty, and very community-driven, but definitely not a luxury vacation.

This was my first trek with Alpine Trekkers, and I genuinely had a fantastic experience. The Hampi trek was very well organized, and I could see the effort that went into planning and execution. What I really liked: Trek Leaders – Sagar & Prachi: Both were super approachable and handled everything with a lot of professionalism and care. They made sure everyone was comfortable, safe, and included. Their energy really added to the experience. Planning & Itinerary: The itinerary had a great mix of activity and rest. The places we visited were beautiful and well chosen. I appreciated how smooth the entire journey felt.
Traveling alone on my first group trip could have been daunting, but Alpine Trekkers made it an incredible experience. The trip leaders were exceptional, taking great care of me and thoughtfully communicating in Hindi (and translating from Marathi) since I don't speak the language. The entire group was welcoming, and we successfully visited all the itinerary destinations. I wholeheartedly recommend Alpine Trekkers. Thank you, Pallavi and Amit, for such a memorable trip.
