About High-Altitude Mountaineering Expeditions
What High-Altitude Expeditions Mean to Us
For us, climbing big mountains is more than a tick mark or bragging rights. It’s a chance to disconnect from the noise and reconnect with yourself — where the air is thin, and every step asks you to dig deeper. Standing above the clouds? No feeling like it. We see these journeys as a kind of meditation on foot.
Choose Your Peak
Whether your goal is a Himalayan peak climbing adventure or going for the Seven Summits mountaineering quest, we’ve got options. Everest, Kilimanjaro, Elbrus, Aconcagua, and more – each climb has its own vibe and challenge. For those starting out, non-technical 6000m climbs like Yunam Peak or Kang Yatse II are great ways to step in without feeling lost.
Our teams include Indian Everesters and top Sherpa guides. We handle everything - from big 8000m giants like Lhotse and Manaslu to lesser-known gems in Ladakh and Himachal.
How We Train and Climb
Safety is our top priority. Before you hit the mountains, we run technical mountaineering training workshops in cities so you know the basics like jumaring and rappelling. We never rush. Every expedition has built-in acclimatization days because being patient is key up there.
The Real Deal
Mountains don’t care about plans. Sometimes you turn back because of weather or conditions. Koi baat nahi (No worries), it’s all part of the story. In the end, apni kahaani hai (it’s our story). We’re here to help you write yours.

My Story
We’re Boots & Crampons, born from the mountains and run by folks who’ve tasted thin air and tough climbs. Our heart beats for the wild. We’ve trekked with army women honouring their mates, watched Chhonzin Angmo stand tall on Mt. Elbrus, and lived those raw moments only trails give. For us, it’s not just about summits—it’s about grit, laughter, and finding your tribe out there. The mountains teach, we just pass it on.
My Work
Treks & Expeditions - We guide everything from beginner Himalayan treks to Seven Summits expeditions, plus climbs in India, Nepal, Russia, Africa, and Antarctica.
Safety and Guiding - Safety first, always. Led by true climbers, we focus on the journey, stories, and friendships—not just the summit.
Trail Vibes - Expect dusty boots, Maggi at 5000m, card games in tents, tired bodies, and spirits buzzing. It’s real, raw, and fun.
For All Levels - Families with kids, solo climbers, or pros wanting technical peak climbing—there’s a trail and challenge for everyone.
