About Chopta, Tungnath & Deoriatal

Chopta is a scenic village wrapped in thick forest and ringed by snowy peaks. It is often nicknamed the "Mini Switzerland of Uttarakhand." The trail to Tungnath Temple, the world's highest Shiva temple at about 3,680 meters, begins here. The shrine is believed to be more than a thousand years old and is one of the Panch Kedar temples, which hold a special place in Hindu mythology.

Past the temple, the path continues up to Chandrashila Peak. From the summit you get a 360° panorama of Nanda Devi, Trishul, Kedar Dome, and Chaukhamba. Nature, faith, and adventure all come together on this one route.

Leaving Delhi for Chopta

The trip starts with an overnight drive from Delhi. The road runs through Rishikesh, Devprayag, and Rudraprayag, with river valleys, confluences, and mountain views along the way. On arrival, you step into cool air and pine forest, a fitting start to the journey.

Go4Explore handles comfortable transport, tasty meals, and experienced trek leaders so the trip stays safe and enjoyable for everyone.
