Highlights:
Trekking from Nainital to Corbett,
spectacular views of peaks,
Tiger sighting in open jeeps
& elephant ride at Dhikala,
rich Himalayan flora, altitude
migrant birds and occasional
sightings of endangered mammals
like Himalayan Black Bear and
Serow, Homestays and Eco-tourism
projects like Mahseer Conservation
Unlike most other treks that
are done in summer for easier
access, this trek is best enjoyed
around winter months as high
altitude birds migrate to lower
regions and the forests are
in bloom. This forest trek has
great altitudinal variation,
giving the whole region a diverse
bird and mammal life. An astounding
650 bird species have been reported
here and the assemblage of mammals
is equally impressive, the most
notable being the elusive Serow.
Highly recommended for beginners,
this is a moderate trek through
beautiful natural surroundings.
You hike along old pony trails,
camp at scenic spots or stay
in colonial era forest bungalows.
Starting from the right bank
of the Kosi River this trek
involves walking through dense
broadleaf forest rich in wildlife,
and forging through shallow
streams. As we gain altitude,
vegetation & landscape go
through considerable change
and you move on to conifer forests
of oak and pine that open into
scenic valleys & gorges.
You finally end the trek at
temperate forest higher up that
offer spectacular views of the
icy Himalayas along the way.
What is quite remarkable is
the ever-changing biodiversity,
rich wildlife and the dramatic
difference in forest types each
day.
The hike takes you through forests
dominated by dense undergrowth
of Ringal, bamboo and ferns
and you can encounter a variety
of wildlife such as barking
deer and pheasants. The forest
stretch between Vinayak and
Patahriya is of great ornithological
importance as the once-considered
extinct Himalayan Quail was
reported here. You pass through
small villages and hamlets,
where you can see people lead
a simple symbiotic life in harmony
with their wild surroundings. |

Series
route for trekking on
Greater Himalayas:
(Garhwal
and Kumaun)
The Himalayas have had
a lure for the traveller
from time immemorial from
those seeking salvation
to the adventurous in
search of new experiences.
The Indian Himalayas have
also been part of the
all important silk route
in the times gone by,
a reminder of the hardiness
of the human race. Trek
along narrow winding trails
with an abandon that comes
only from knowing that
the destination one seeks
will be way beyond his
expectations. Make a choice
among the best of the
Himalayas closest to one’s
heart and go for it. Every
destination has a unique
character that has to
be seen to be believed
- one of them could be
the paradise you seek.
What
is Trekking?
Trekking is the
best way of getting to
know any land, its people,
its culture and traditions.
Although it is often confused
with mountaineering which
is more technical and
a well planned affair.
It was Adi Guru Shankaracharya,
who trekked in the Himalayas
in the 8th century A.D.,
thereby becoming the pioneer
of a number of trekking
routes in this part of
India. The mountain adventure
season which till recently
was confined to the summer
months in this region;
now covers almost the
full year including winter.
Contrary to somewhat widely
held belief, a trek, mountaineering
expedition, ski trip or
river run does not require
a superhuman physical
condition. What is essential
is a love for the outdoors
and respect for nature.
If you're fired by the
spirit of adventure, let
the sparks in your heart
fly in the hills of Kumaon,
a land blessed with snowbound
peaks, Glaciers, Rolling
Meadows, jagged rock faces,
scenic valleys, meandering
rivers, cascading waterfalls,
dense forests and hospitable
people with rich culture.
Objective:
The proposed
ten part series would
focus on some of Trekking
routes in the Kumaon Himalayas
of Uttarakhand. The prime
focus of the series would
be to synthesise an experience
that would encompass not
only an exposure to a
better and more spiritual
kind of lifestyle but
would also attempt to
expose potential tourists
to other diversions along
these main routes underlined
below. In addition the
proposed programme would
also contain information
and advice on issues like
environment conservation,
ecotourism, etc.
Beginning
with the opening episode
of Pindari Glacier,
the Ten part series
intends covering Kafni
glaciers, Milam glaciers,
Sunderdhunga glacier,
Nanda devi Sanctury,
Panchachuli Glacier,
Ralam Glacier, Roop
Kund and Namik glaciers.
The above said all the
episodes will cover
all the important aspect
and the historical importance
of the various places
and the points that
come through the journey
of trekking so as keeping
in mind to uplift the
tourism factor in Uttarakhand.
