Gateway to Kumaon Himalayas

tarundimriyes
For travellers interested in exploring the less crowded side of Uttarakhand, the Khaliya Top trek offers an appealing route into the Kumaon Himalayas. The journey begins around Munsiyari, a picturesque mountain settlement surrounded by dramatic Himalayan terrain. From the approach roadhead, the trail climbs steadily through forest and eventually reaches the expansive Khaliya meadow. The area is known for panoramic views towards peaks including Panchachuli, Nanda Devi and Nanda Kot when skies remain clear. The relatively compact nature of the trek makes it attractive to visitors who want a genuine Himalayan excursion without committing to a lengthy expedition deep into the mountains.
