About the club

What is Doon Outdoors Club?

Welcome to Doon Outdoors Club (DOC) — an outdoor community based in Dehradun, Uttarakhand. We bring people together for Sunday hikes across different trails and landscapes around the city.

Adventure does not always need a multi-day trek or a high-altitude expedition. Sometimes all you need is a Sunday morning, a pair of trekking shoes, a trail and a good group of people.

Our goal is simple: make outdoor experiences accessible, regular and enjoyable for everyone. From easy nature walks to more challenging hikes, there is room to grow with the community.

Our Sunday hikes

What a DOC Sunday looks like

Morning meet-up and trail briefing
A guided hike with time to explore
Breaks, photography and group interaction
Mindful moments, meditation or clean-up activities where appropriate
