  • South Col  is a small, personalized firm specializing in treks in the Himalayan region.
  • Major treks are led by Founder Sujoy Das wheras other treks are led by senior guides with many years experience.
  • We are keenly aware of the fragility of environment and cultures in which we  trek and recognize our responsibility in maintaining them. “Take pictures, leave only foot prints” is our motto.
  • Trekkers get personalised attention both in the planning stage as well as during the trek itself.
  • Support team of guides and porters as needed are personally supervised by Sujoy to ensure that the clients are comfortable and well looked after.
  • Sujoy has intimate knowledge of the trekking trails so can advise on the best stops for photographs and local culture etc.
  • Lodges for night stops and camping sites if needed are selected to ensure the best views, food and comfort.
  • Due to low overheads,  cost are far less than other companies offering similar treks.
  • Families with children are especially invited to come- Sujoy’s past treks have included Anamika 7 years, Prithvi 9 years and Yuvraj 12 years, all of whom successfully climbed upto 3000 metres!
