We are Yatris. Seekers of the sacred. Wanderers of the high passes.
Est. 2018
Shrikhand Mahadev Yatra
"The mountains don't just challenge the body. They strip away the ego, layer by layer, until only the soul remains."
Pahari Yatri was born not in a boardroom, but on the rugged trails of the Shrikhand Mahadev Yatra. It was 2018. The air was thin, the path was treacherous, and the silence was deafening. In that silence, I found something I hadn't realized I was looking for: Connection.
Not just with nature, but with the divine energy that permeates these peaks. I realized that the Himalayas are not merely a destination for adventure; they are ancient, living temples.
I saw travelers rushing to conquer peaks, missing the spirit of the mountain. I wanted to change that. I wanted to create a community of Yatris—travelers who walk with reverence, who seek transformation, and who leave footprints of kindness.
To walk with us is to uphold these sacred truths.
We do not conquer mountains. We bow to them. Every trek is a pilgrimage, every step a prayer.
We are guardians of the high lands. We leave no trace but gratitude, protecting the fragile ecosystem.
We are not a tour group. We are a tribe. We support local Pahari communities and honor their traditions.

Whether you seek the challenge of a summit or the peace of a forest retreat at our Gayatri Lodge or Yatri Stay, we are here to guide you.
