Unmatched glacier safety and world-class leadersSeptember 2026

Capt. Siddharth R.

"The acclimatization schedule on Mulkila was calculated with extreme surgical precision. Our IMF certified lead captain was constantly checking SpO2 levels and snow anchors. Summit day felt safe despite the 55° ice wall. Best expedition outfit in the Himalayas."

Response from cravel.in Captain

Thank you Siddharth! Safety protocols and gradual altitude gain on the Milang Glacier are our absolute top priority.

Ananya Deshmukh

"Standing on the M4 pinnacle at 6,517m with the Spiti, Zanskar, and Pir Panjal massifs stretching into infinity was a spiritual experience. The Swiss shoreline tents and high-calorie nutrition were incredible for recovery."

Response from cravel.in Captain

Congratulations on summiting M4 Ananya! Our mountain chefs loved keeping the team fueled with warm nutritious meals.
