Overview

Nanda Devi East Base Camp Trek

Up in the northernmost frontiers of the Kumaon Himalayas, the Johar Valley is one of the less frequented but coveted destinations for true mountain lovers. Nanda Devi is the 2nd highest mountain in India, its peak standing 7816 meters above sea level. 

Nanda Devi is double-peaked, formed due to tectonic plate movements, resulting in a 2-kilometer-long (1.2 mi) high ridge, sloping east-west. The western summit is higher, and the eastern summit, called Nanda Devi East, is the lower one.

The journey ascends from the lowest point of 1850 meters in Lilam to the Base Camp (highest point) at 3900 meters. 
Views of the neighboring mountains like Nanda Devi (7,816m), Trishul (7,074m), Panch Chuli(6904m) peaks, 

and Nanda Kot (6,861m) throughout the trail add to the grandeur of the journey. The scenery evolves from village settings, lush green forests, the bloom of rhododendrons, junipers to snowy peaks.

The massive spread of its fa?ade, jutting out at the top is a constant delight to look at as it encompasses itself within misty clouds. This trek caters to enthusiasts who are willing to put their skills and fitness to the test. While certain patches offer leisure, the trek gradually ascends toward steep valleys and challenging terrain. 

The Nanda Devi trek difficulty can be considered ranging from mild to challenging. Participants must be well oriented and prepared before the adventure begins.
