Tungnath Temple Trek

Tungnath · Uttarakhand

The highest Shiva temple in the world at 3680m — Tungnath is one of the Panch Kedar and over 1000 years old. The 3.5km paved path from Chopta is one of the most rewarding short treks in India, winding through rhododendron forests that blaze red in April-May. Unlike the full Chandrashila summit push, this is accessible to families and casual walkers. The temple itself is a masterpiece of Garhwali stone architecture.

⚠ Altitude can cause breathlessness in unacclimatized visitors

The route crosses glaciers, moraines, and technical terrain with views of Gangotri group peaks that are reserved for the truly committed.

Bali Pass Trek

Uttarkashi · Uttarakhand

A challenging crossover trek connecting Har Ki Dun valley to Yamunotri via the formidable Bali Pass at 4950m.

The descent into the Yamunotri valley provides a completely different perspective of Garhwal. Essentially two great treks connected by a dramatic pass.

Kamet Expedition

Joshimath · Uttarakhand

India's second highest peak and the third highest in the Garhwal Himalayas. At 7756m, Kamet was the first peak over 25000ft to be climbed (1931, Frank Smythe). This is a serious mountaineering expedition requiring months of preparation, prior 7000m experience, and a professional team. The mountain offers a technically moderate route by 7000m standards but the altitude, weather, and remoteness make it a formidable objective. Reserved for the most experienced and committed mountaineers.

⚠ This is a SERIOUS HIGH-ALTITUDE EXPEDITION — 20+ days
