Straddling the districts of Garhwal and Kumaon, close to the Nepalese border, Nanda Devi (7817m./25640ft.) is the geographical and spiritual high point of India. Trekking west from the valley of the Ram Ganga to reach the Gauri Ganga in the east, our route is rich in interest, passing through a delightfully scenic and unspoiled corner of the Indian Himalaya. Traversing alpine meadows and crossing high passes, we have panoramic views of the clustered peaks of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary and the adjacent Panch Chuli group. Visits to several villages and shepherds’ camps provide a wealth of cultural interest and help to make this a wholly memorable adventure in an area visited by few trekkers.

What to expect
A trip graded as a Moderate Trek takes you to high altitude regions - above 3000m / 10,0000ft and will involve considerable altitude gain over the course of the trek. Altitude will have an effect, hence one would need to be careful about acclimatization. Moderate treks will have multiple days which involve considerable amount of ascents and descents and would require walking for more than 6 hours. There might be a day or two of camping in relatively high altitudes above 4000m / 13,000ft. A typical trek will last around a week to ten days depending on the region and is a good step-up for people who have completed a beginner trek.
Good fitness levels are needed to enjoy these trips. Some training up before the trip would help. Prior trekking experience is desirable.
