Mountainspirit

Overview

The Chopta Tungnath Trek is one of the most popular and spiritually uplifting short treks in Uttarakhand. Set in the magnificent Garhwal Himalayas, Chopta — often called “Mini Switzerland of India” — offers rolling meadows, dense forests of oak and rhododendron, crystal-clear skies, and postcard-perfect views of the mighty Himalayan ranges.

This trek takes you to Tungnath, the highest Shiva temple in the world, followed by a climb to the summit of Chandrashila, which rewards you with a breathtaking 360° panorama of Nanda Devi, Trishul, Chaukhamba, and Kedarnath ranges.

Suitable for beginners as well as seasoned trekkers, the route is beautiful throughout the year — lush and vibrant in summer, and magically snow-covered in winter. If you’re looking for a short Himalayan escape filled with spirituality, scenic beauty, and adventure, this is the perfect trek.
