Words from the Managing Director
“Travelling is the experience of being deeply connected to nature. Just like a plant needs time and care to grow, our lives also need moments of mindfulness, peace, and grounding to thrive truly.”
Brief Background Story of Mr. Jitendra Jhakri
Jitendra Jhakri is the visionary behind Explore Dolpo Treks & Expedition (P) Ltd, a company rooted in authenticity and a deep love for the high Himalayas. His journey began in Dunai, the administrative centre of Dolpo, where he initially ran CG Trekking Store, supplying essential gear to trekkers and expeditions. Through this grassroots involvement, he gained valuable insight into the trekking culture and built strong relationships within the community.
Encouraged by seasoned trekking professionals, Jitendra made a pivotal shift into the trekking industry. After years of firsthand experience and reflection, he founded Explore Dolpo Treks with a mission to create a homegrown, culturally grounded, and professional trekking company that truly represents the spirit of the Dolpo region.
Now, with over 17 years of dedication and leadership at the helm of Explore Dolpo Treks & Expedition, Jitendra has established exceptional logistical networks, including close ties with Fish Tail Air and Summit Air. His long-standing relationship with these airline companies ensures reliable and smooth access to remote mountain regions, adding a critical layer of efficiency and safety to every journey.
Under his direction, Explore Dolpo Treks continues to deliver authentic, meaningful, and well-managed Himalayan adventures that connect travellers not only to majestic landscapes but also to the culture, community, and soul of Dolpo.
