Overview :
The trip through the Kuari Pass is considered to be one of the most historic treks in the Garwal area of the state of Uttarakhand. Lord Curzon, who was serving as Viceroy of India at the time, arrived to Kuari Pass Trek in 1905; hence, this path is now often known as The Lord Curzon’s Trail. The Chamoli district of Uttarakhand is where you will find this route. Because it affords hikers a breathtaking perspective of India’s second-highest peak, Nanda Devi, as well as India’s third-highest mountain, Kamet, this trip is often regarded as one of the best in the industry. It is distinct from other Himalayan climbs due to the ongoing transformation of the surrounding environment. In addition to Nanda Devi and Kamet, the following mountains may be seen: Mount Neelkanth, Mount Dronagiri, Mount Hathi Ghoda, Lampak I and II, and others. This walk has an easy to moderate difficulty and lasts for a total of six days. The trek begins in Rishikesh and continues until we reach Joshimath, which is where our base camp is located. The Kuari Pass Trek begins in the town of Dhak, which is located 12 km higher from Joshimath. After passing through Dhak, the path opens out to reveal towns perched on cliff sides, woods, vast grassland, and the snow-covered peaks of the Himalayas in the distance.
