An entrepreneur at heart, Migma Girmi Sherpa is on a mission to establish Darjeeling as India’s Hiking Capital. With over 25 years of experience in the hospitality industry, he has worked with renowned hotel chains like Radisson, Westin, Hyatt, Taj, and Oberoi across major cities such as Mumbai, Gurgaon, Kolkata, Bangalore, Mussoorie, and Puri.

Recognizing a growing problem in Darjeeling tourism—a lack of innovation in experiences leading to overcrowding at the same sightseeing points—Migma envisioned a new path. To address this, he launched a bold campaign positioning Darjeeling as a hub for hiking and adventure tourism.

He is the founder of Youth for Tourism, a platform uniting young tourism professionals from the Darjeeling and Kalimpong hills to promote sustainable growth. Under his leadership, the team has curated over 18 unique hiking routes, unveiling the region’s rich natural beauty and trekking potential.

A passionate advocate for local empowerment, he also initiated Rimbick Fresh to promote local products and revive traditional marketplaces, and supported the rise of Gorkha Haat as a cultural and commercial platform.

Now, through Dekho Darjeeling, Migma is not just offering travel—he’s inviting the world to experience the unexplored soul of the Eastern Himalayas.
