About Us
The Cobbler
The Wandering Shoes is the vision of a web developer with a passion for adventure.
Madhav is a trained mountaineering instructor and a very humble, but great experimental cook. His travels have instilled in him a boundless love for road trips, wildlife and immersing himself in new cultures.
An avid rock climber, highliner, alpinist, snowboarder and photographer, he derives great pleasure from venturing into the unchartered.
Under his belt are solo expeditions to peaks such as Friendship, Ladakhi, Moon and Camel to name a few, amongst other unnamed peaks in the Indian Himalayas and exploratory ventures across the Dhualdhar Range.
He has also undertaken alpine climbs to Nun, Kang Yatse, Yunam, Stok Kangri, Pinacle Peak and a few 100km+ trans-himalayan journeys.
Keeping Outdoor Education at the forefront, Madhav ultimately aims at setting up a formal, responsible and ethical framework for mountaineering in India.
Our initial days
The wandering shoes started off as a personal photo blog when the founder was just kicking off his journey in the outdoors. In the first 3 years run, the first leg as he describes it, he had experienced all that he could get his hands on, from the things that came his way and the rest, devoted to chasing a few dreams. Amids’t the frenzy of adventures he hosted a few treks and experiential journeys exploring the unique cultures of the remotest villages of the Northern India ( TWS Specials) A couple of years into hiking, trekking, mountaineering, experiential travel, cultural experiences in the remotest of villages and more, soon turned into hosting a few; treks and such experiences a year. The enthusiasm towards such trips and knowledge also propelled some projects like Intra-day runs, The art of alpinism and Solo trekking. These were piloted a few years down the line. We started hosting a few treks pre-season with a strong team for a completely different experience, but only for experienced trekkers. We decided to list a few offerings, from the adventures that the shoes had already been on. The photographs are taken by the photography enthusiast founder himself
