A classic trek that retraces the pioneering steps of Shipton and Tilman through the Garhwal Himalaya. The Nanda Devi basin must surely be one among the foremost legendary regions within the entire Himalayan chain. The mountain itself, revered since time out of mind by all those that sleep in its shadow, has long attracted the eye of the pioneering mountaineers and explorers, mystics and spiritualists, writers and everyday travellers who have visited the world .
Everest could be the very best peak within the world but the gorgeous peak of Nanda Devi must surely be the foremost fascinating. the world first came to the eye of the Western world as a results of the 19th century explorations by Traill, Graham and Longstaff but shot to fame within the 1930’s when Shipton and Tilman forced a route into the Inner Sanctuary. Nanda Devi is that the highest mountain situated completely within India and is surrounded by a ridge wall of nearly 6000m. the sole break during this wall is that the Rishi Ganga, a wild and seemingly impenetrable gorge.
This classic trek takes us across the picturesque meadows and valleys that border the western fringe of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary. The route we follow was employed by Shipton and Tilman on their amazing journey to the Nanda Devi basin. During the trek there are many views of the encompassing peaks and therefore the Kuari Pass (3658m) itself has an unrivalled panorama of the good Himalayan peaks including Nanda Devi (7816m), Changabang (6864m), Dunagiri (7066m) and Kamet (7756m).
This amazing feat of endurance and determination was capped when Tilman later returned to overcome the height itself. Sadly, the mystic of the world led to an more than expeditions and ecological damage and therefore the Sanctuary was closed the 1980’s.
