Our Mission
At the Himalayan Golden Oak Adventure, our main aim is to inspire you to push yourself further - to discover what you are capable of - and to have fun while doing that. We believe that challenge and adventure, packaged with unadulterated nature will impel you to achieve more than you ever thought possible, show compassion for others and do your bit to create a better world. The key to this, we believe, is to promote natural resource sustainability, economic viability and cultural integrity through sustainable tourism development. We enable our clients to experience remote areas, to view pristine natural beauty and to learn from the cultures of the Himalayas without depleting natural resources or degrading cultural identities.
