Hi Sanjay and welcome to India Mike!

You might like to have a look in the following sub-forum which is where trekkers looking for trekking partners hang out here on IM:



http://www.indiamike.com/india/trekk...-meetups-f134/



Maybe you would also look at the Sikkim forum and/or the West Bengal forum for some useful tips.

sanjay_bubai,

There are quite a few clubs for trekkers in Kolkata. South Calcutta Trekkers Association, Alpine and other clubs organize treks for its members throughout the year. You should be able to meet a lot of like minded people here.
Since you are working in Kolkata IT sector, there are many here in the same profession as yours who are regular trekkers. In general, everybody has their own groups - so you would need to penetrate into these groups and become a member.
Hope this helps.

I think you should rephrase the last line as - 'People in Cal are probably just not that into living life in the way I think they should'.
No offense meant buddy, but this is a public forum meant for exchanging information, and is NOT the place to express one's personal opinions about the people of a city.
I see you are new to IM, so let me extend a warm welcome to the group.

Rahul,

No problem. Why don't you come for the next IM meetup - some time around Diwali (pre or post - not sure at this moment)? It is a good place to make friends with other IM members.

Youth Hostel Association of India organises treks in different areas of Himalayas, Western Ghats, NE hills etc.Passionate people who are suffering due to lack of like minded companion in their circle can join YHAIs trek programmes.
