Churdhar Trek-12000 ft

How about a trek to the less traveled Mountains for that fresh crisp air to detox your weary souls? Join us for a trekking destination in Himachal with the most experienced ones in the adventure field.

Churdhar Peak is a trekking haven with well defined trails located in the Sirmaur district of Himachal. In fact, it is also known as Churi Chandni which translates to ‘mountain in bangles of snow’. It specifically, offers a 360 degree view of the Himalayan ranges from the mighty Dhauladhar to as far as the snow clad peaks ranges, in addition to the peaks of Badrinath and Kedarnath. At an elevation of 12000 feet above sea level, Churdhar is actually the highest peak which is not in the Himalayas. Owing to its height, the majestic peak is also visible from Shimla, Kufri as well as Kasauli. The northern side of the mountain remains under a thick cover of snow for nearly half the year. The top has a lingam dedicated to Lord Shiva right under the peak.
