DEORIATAL-CHANDRASHILA

The Deoriatal-Chandrashila Trek presents a stunning journey through the natural wonders of Uttarakhand, India. Starting with the enchanting Deoriatal Lake, where the shimmering water attracts a variety of wildlife, including birds and animals, the trek leads you through lush forests adorned with maple, rhododendron, and oak trees.

As you ascend towards Chopta, you’ll find yourself surrounded by luxuriant meadows and picturesque mountain dwellings against the backdrop of the Himalayan ranges. The trail then takes you to the sacred Tungnath peak, home to the highest Lord Shiva shrine in the world, standing majestically at about 12,073 feet.

Culminating at the summit of Chandrashila, approximately 13,000 feet above sea level, offers a moment of bliss and awe as you stand amidst the snow-clad mountains, admiring the panoramic views of both Western and Eastern Uttarakhand.

While the trek is considered relatively easy, thanks to its well-defined trails, some steep climbs and rugged terrain will test your trekking skills. However, the reward of reaching the Chandrashila summit makes every challenge worthwhile.
