One of the giant snow-capped Himalayan peaks lying at the end of the eastern Kumaon region; Panchachuli Peak is a famous attraction of Uttarakhand. The peaks have religious significance for the locals and for the adventurists its Base Camp is an ideal option for a short trek. Usually, trekkers thronged towards the base camp of the Panchachuli Peak between May and September.
Starting from Almora, the trekking trail passes through Dharchula, Tawaghat, Sobla, Dhar, Sela, Balling, and Duktu, and then finally concludes at Panchachuli. During the journey, trekkers will come across gorgeous Darma Valley, which offers the splendid view of the Panchachuli peaks. The trail from Duktu to Panchachuli glacier is hard to follow. However, determination and strategy can help to overcome these difficulties. The route that heads to Panchachuli glacier traverses through enthralling scenery with snow-capped mountains gushing streams, alpine meadows and rich flora and fauna.
