Publisher’s Summary
Winner of the Edward Stanford Adventure Travel Book of the Year 2016.
From the best-selling author of Walking the Nile, explorer Levison Wood begins his next challenging adventure – walking the length of the Himalayas.
Levison Wood’s most challenging expedition yet begins along the Silk Road route of Afghanistan and travels through five countries. Following in the footsteps of the great explorers, Levison walks the entire length of the Himalayas in an adventure of survival and endurance.
A personal story of discovery, Levison forges strong bonds with local guides, porters, mountain men, soldiers, farmers, smugglers and shepherds. By travelling on foot, and following the same footpaths that locals use, he uncovers stories that might otherwise remain hidden. Along the way he also reveals the history of the Himalayas and two millennia of exploration, and examines a continent in crisis in the 21st century.
Packed with action and emotion, more than anything Walking the Himalayas is a story of personal adventure and striving beyond the limits of convention.

love the journey
So much fun listening to the places and interesting characters he meets along the way. One defining horror scene makes journey even more inspiring. His books are just great.

Transported to the Mountains!
Listen to this book took me to the Himalayas every time I closed my eyes!

Good listen
I really enjoyed this. I like the style of writing used by Wood. Enough detail but not overly technical. I also enjoyed the unbiased history of the locations. This is the second book I’ve listened to by this author and enjoyed them both. On to the next two.

Walking in the foothills just below the Himalayas
With 8 years in the Indian and Nepali Himalayas spread out over 26 years myself I found this story interesting. I had spent those years at higher altitude than the author so I was interested to hear about the ground he covered. The author is a great story teller but very British. If you enjoy a well crafted tale of an interesting adventure you will find it here.

Fascinating.
Excellent performance; it's a fascinating study of cultures and of the universality of man. I didn't want it to end.
