A Trek Into Nanda Devi National Park Encompasses Culture, Wildlife and 360-degree Views of the Great Himalayan Range
Most people know the mountain’s famous south face view as seen from hill stations like Ranikhet and Almora in the Kumaon Himalayas. The twin peaks of Nanda Devi and Nanda Devi East peer over the icy 21,700-foot-high southern ridge that cloaks the Nanda Devi Sanctuary, a vast area of about 380 square kilometres of glaciers and meadows.
Another popular view is that from the Kuari Pass trek in the Garhwal Himalaya. From here, you see the west face of the mountain, a vast triangle dominating the horizon, aloof and above the surrounding galaxy of peaks. It’s the same view from Dharansi, except that seen from here, the west face looms like an enormous sail, with scuttling clouds at its summit adding to that illusion.
