01Why this page exists
Love Himalaya Journey launched in 2026. While our guides build up their own photo library from the trails they actually walk, some pages use photographs shared by Wikimedia Commons contributors under Creative Commons licences.
Those licences let anyone use the work, on one condition: credit the person who took the picture. That is what this page is for. We are replacing these images with our own photography as our guides send it back from the trail, and each entry disappears from this list when its photograph does.
If you are one of the photographers listed here and something is wrong or missing, write to our team and we will correct it.
