Uttarkashi –The City of Temples

Uttarkashi is a small town and district headquarter of the district of Uttarkashi in the Himalayan state of Uttarakhand in North of India. The town was a small pit stop on the road to Gangotri and Gomukh pilgrimage. Now, it has grown larger and is no more a mere pit stop, but a destination in itself. It is also the starting point for mountain climbing expeditions to several of the highest peaks of Himalayas. The famous Nehru Institute of Mountaineering is based here and attracts people from across the world to come to learn the craft of mountaineering.

Uttarkashi is nestled in a valley that is cut through by the Bhagirathi river. It is surrounded on all sides by mountains. The valley and its surrounding area offer excellent opportunities for outdoors and nature lovers with activities like hiking, trekking, mountain climbing, bird watching, angling, fishing, mountain biking, mountaineering, rappelling, rock climbing, camping, etc.

Visit Uttarkashi to Visit Nelong Valley

Recently, one of the most exquisite and beautiful places in Uttarkashi, which had been out of bounds for people, has been opened to the public for day visits. If you wish to visit Nelong Valley, Uttarkashi is the obvious choice for overnight stay. The valley with its stark mountains juxtaposed against the clear blue sky is an experience in itself and offers a unique experience to walk along a 19th-century wooden path cleaved out of a sheer rock face and lined with thick wooden sleepers to create a narrow but adventurous path at Gartang Gali.

If you are a spiritual seeker looking to connect with your inner self, there are excellent opportunities for introspection and studying Vedanta Philosophy with reknowned Vedanta masters who have settled in the quiet environs of Uttarkashi to contemplate and study Indian philosophy.
