If you have followed well then it would have been via Muzaffarnagar, Roorkee, Rishikesh, Srinagar, Rudraprayag. It might be a thrilling experience. Thank you :blush: :pray: :raised_hands:

@GNaz Thank u :blush: !! Sure, I would love to share my experience with everyone.

Chopta is known for it’s lush green Meadows during summers while in winters, the place is covered with fresh snow. One can do adventurous activities like skiing, trekking & camping. I went there to do Tungnath trek ( one of the highest Shiva temples in the world) wherein, Chopta is the base to start the trek. Apart from this, the views u get to see there are heavenly. It was such an amazing experience for me.

Thank you for the detailed information @_Vani . I also like nature and when I have time I go to trek as well. How long lasted the Tungnath trek?
