With the upcoming holiday season in mind, Indiahikes is hosting an Instagram Contest. Titled #IHTimelapse, this contest is for all those who love revisiting tiny bits of their treks through timelapses! We can’t wait to see all the floating clouds, shimmering rivers, swaying trees and stock-still mountains. Show us your best timelapses using the hashtag #IHTimelapse.

Here are the rules to enter the contest.

  • Include an interesting backstory around your entry in the caption.

NOTE: Entries must be posted from a public account during the challenge period (December 23rd 2016 to January 7th 2017). You cannot tag an older video. Such entries will not be considered.
