About The Trek

Starting from Munsiyari (Kumaon Himalayas) and finishing at Malari (Garhwal Himalayas) - a 2-week trip from takes you to experience the area of complete wilderness with outstanding view of Nanda Devi group of peaks. Chances of encountering rare high altitude flora and fauna are very great on the trek.

The Around Nanda Devi Trek passes through one of the most varied topography in the Indian Himalayas. The road head at Munsiyari provides for an unparalleled view of the awe inspiring Panchachuli range. Dropping down into the Gauri Ganga valley the path passes through thick tropical forests, which soon give way to snow bridges and alpine meadows. As we climb and cross over the Untadhura (17,500 ft.) and the Khingrudhura (17,900 ft) passes the landscape changes to a Tibetan like high altitude desert. The grand finale is the last day's trek over a deep gorge with a narrow path cut out of the rock face. The trek finishes with a drive to Auli, which will give us our last grand view of the enigma, that is Nanda Devi.

A unique mix of flora and fauna is characteristic of this park. The fauna includes the brown and Himalayan black bears, Himalayan thar, snow leopards, serow and chir pheasants.
