About the Destination

• The Roopkund trek is an invigorating expedition
  from the high altitude region of Loharjung, in
  the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand at 3200m, to
  the Skeletal Lake of Roopkund shadowed by the
  mighty peak of Trishul standing tall at 5000m.
  The trail for the trek that leads to the frozen
  Roopkund Lake also overlaps with the religious
  pilgrimage of Nanda Devi thus making this
  experience of trekking in Uttarakhand, an overall
  mix of culture and adventure.Going by legends,
  the Mystery Lake is immersed and circled by
  hundreds of skeletons which is the major
  attraction of this trek. The skeletons happen to
  belong to pilgrims who fell to their deaths due
  to the unexpected natural calamities.
• For trekking enthusiasts, the Roopkund trekking
  is an idyllic one comprising of trails cutting
  through dense thickets, surpassing the gushing
  waters of brooks and streams as well as charming
  lakes and  vast expanse of lush grasslands, also
  known as Bugyals. At the top of the mysterious
  lake of Roopkund, get the opportunity to witness
  and marvel at the stunning views of  Roopkund
  Glacier, Trishul, Nandaghungti and Choukhamba
  peaks.
