Trek Overview

Why Pangarchulla? The Pangarchulla trek takes you to an impressive height of 15,100 feet and offers a blend of adrenaline-pumping climbs and tranquil landscapes that are ideal as you lace up your boots and trek to some of the Himalayas' most magnificent views. It features one-of-a-kind panoramas: Nanda Devi, Manaparvat, a symphony of towering peaks like Dronagiri, Elephant Mountain, and other majestic peaks soaring.

This is not just a walk; it’s your chance to walk through untouched forests, shimmering rivulets, and rolling alpine meadows. The snowy downhill trails add an extra layer of magic, making it hard to push your limits even as you immerse yourself in the overwhelming beauty surrounding you.

A visit to remember: The Pangarchulla trek isn’t just a destination—it’s a story waiting to unfold. It’s the sound of your shoes, the glow of a fire on a cold night, the shared image of a golden sunrise over mountaintops.

This hike requires anyone who wants to have a deep connection with the mountains. Whether you love adventure, inner peace, or just the pleasure of going where few have gone before, Pangarchulla welcomes you with open arms.

So, pack your bags, gather your courage, and set foot on a journey that not only promises to be an incredible experience but a touching one. Let the Himalayas write their story about your soul with a full moon journey.
