Himalaya

Covering a length of 2,400km and offering most of the highest mountains in the world, the mighty Himalaya has always amazed and possessed those who walk its hallowed paths. Those who live on its steep hills have developed their own highly independent and enclosed cultures, worshipping the taller peaks as gods. It is the source of the great and holy rivers of the Indian Subcontinent and to this day draws visitors to its darkest corners and most challenging of mountains.
