Har Ki Dun Trek, Uttarakhand
Situated at a height of 3566 m in the Western Ganges of the Garhwal Himalayas, the Hanging valley of Gods, also known as Har ki Doon, is a moderate trek, offering a wonderful experience to the trekker. This cradle-shaped valley is enveloped by sparkling peaks and dense forests. Make your Summer Vacations in Uttarakhand more exciting by unveiling the secrets of the inhabitants who reside in the valley and still practice polygamy and worship Duryodhana, a Kaurawa brother from Mahabharata, as their deity.
Boasting of immense serenity and untouched natural beauty, this trek has a vast and varied variety of flora and fauna.
