Overview

The Har Ki Dun trek, often referred to as the “Stairway to Heaven,” offers an enchanting journey through stunning landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and spiritual significance. Nestled at an altitude of 11,700 ft, it’s known for its snow-capped peaks, alpine meadows, rhododendron forests, and pristine rivers. The trek follows a historical and mythological path believed to have been traversed by the Pandavas on their way to heaven. It also holds cultural significance due to its association with Duryodhana from the Mahabharata and the ancient temple dedicated to him.

The trek is ideal for both beginners and experienced trekkers, providing ample opportunities for adventure, photography, and immersing oneself in nature. The area is rich in flora and fauna, and the cultural richness of local villages offers a fascinating glimpse into life in the remote Himalayas.
