## Description

The Himalayan Mountaineering Institute (HMI) is a mountaineering and adventure-training institute based in Darjeeling, West Bengal, India. Founded on November 4, 1954, by India’s first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, it was established to commemorate the first successful ascent of Mount Everest by Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and Sir Edmund Hillary. Known for its international reputation, HMI has trained thousands of people from India and around the world in mountaineering and related adventure activities.

The institute offers a range of courses designed to build climbing skills and encourage a spirit of adventure. Its programmes include basic and advanced mountaineering, adventure training, search and rescue, rock climbing, mountaineering refresher courses, and instruction for aspiring instructors. Short-term and special courses, as well as treks to base camps and the Sandakphu area, are also listed. HMI provides course information, application and medical forms, and trainee insurance details through its website. Visitors can also purchase institute souvenirs, including clothing, gloves, and walking sticks.
