About Har Ki Dun Trek
A trekker’s delight, the Har ki Dun trek is the stairway to
heaven that will make you fall for its beauty. The thing
that makes it an alluring trek is its accessibility both in
summer as well as the winter season. Har Ki Dun Valley is
situated on the western flank of the Garhwal Himalayas
and is very popular with trekkers as well as climbers. The
walk to Har Ki Doon Valley is a lovely one with
fascinating views of the Swargarohini group of peaks.
The Har Ki Dun catchment area is a major source of the
Yamuna River System.
Har Ki Dun trek takes you through some of the most
charismatic alpine meadows and pine forests which is a
treat to the eyes. During winters the snow-covered trails
of Har Ki Dun Trek look mesmerizing as and when the sun
tries to peep behind the clouds. One of the oldest Treks
in Himalayas, known as the Valley of Gods, some believe
Har ki doon is the same route taken by the Pandavas in
the Mahabharata on their ascent to heaven.
Swargarohini—the snow peak, the vision of which
dominates the Har Ki Doon Trek bears a legacy of the
mythical stairway to heaven and this trek gives you a
true experience of trekking in Uttarakhand, the land of
Gods.
