Har Ki Dun Trek | Indiaeve.com


Nestled in the middle of a cradle-shaped vale below the Har Ki Dun peak, itis one of the most beautiful valleys in the Western Himalayas.

A delight for trekkers, both in summer and winter,this valley is accessible through Govind National Park known for its rich variety of flora and fauna. The trail through alpine meadows, moraine ridges, glacier basins, pine forests and ancient villages, gives you spectacular valley views and a chance to experience the wonderful slow-paced local lifestyle.
This is the only valley from where one can see Swargarohini I, II, III, Bandarpoonch and Blackpeak, all together. One can also see the Ruinsara peaks from here.
Since the trail isnt treaded upon too often, birds and animals thrive in this region. One can spot langoor families near Puani Garaat. Black bears, wild boars and Barasingha are few of the other animals you can spot if youre lucky. Golden eagles and massive Himalayan griffins also live here. The colourful Himalayan monal, the state bird of Uttarakhand, thrives in the forests here.
This is also one of the few treks where one can come across the local lifestyle in close proximity. The villages on the trail are ancient and seem like from a different civilization. Most of the residents here grow rajma, potato and rice for living. They also weave their own wool and make jackets and coats.

India has plentiful festivals and cultural occasions to celebrate. Have you wondered how blessed India is to have so many diverse culture, language, region and religion? Diversity has indeed blessed India with so many occasions for getting together and events to celebrate. Holi, for instance, is one national Hindu festival that enunciates the real meaning of “festival of colors”, “festival of spring” and “festival of love”. Holi is not confined as a festival that is celebrated among Hindus alone, but Non-Hindus also share the love and spirit for the festival. The colours, the splish-splash, the Holi games and there is a lot more that makes you fall in love with Holi. Let us get to the big question- Why do we celebrate Holi?

There was an ‘Asura’ king called Hiranyakashipu who had a very special boon- he could neither be killed by a man nor an animal! This made Hiranyakashipu invi...
