Pick up from Haridwar Railway Station to Sari. Travel into the Garwhal by Local bus. We follow the Ganges Valley in the morning with many stops to view the beautiful scenery and monkeys en route.

A full day’s walk following the pilgrim trail across open pasture and through thick forest to the camp at Chopta. Today’s ascent is gradual, but steady. We set a pace to suit the group so there’s plenty of time to enjoy the surroundings. Dinner is prepared in camp, the mountain peaks are getting closer!

Following a hearty breakfast we make our final ascent. Tunganath  perches on the slopes of the 3900m Chandra Shilla mountain. Our walk up Chandra Shilla is made all the more challenging because of the ever thinning air but the trail is in good condition and the going underfoot is easy. As we approach 3700m, a whole new vista to the north opens up and there, glinting in the sun, is the golden roof of  Tunganath. After lunch we return to the camp at Chopta to celebrate our success!
