Travelling in the mountains is something which I like the most and I am ready everytime for a new adventure. Got a chance to explore uttrakhand and I went for it. Following the snowy trials and the wild forest we were able to make it to the top of auli and the view was breath taking. All the major Himalayan peaks are visible from this mountain which is near the Indian border and on one side of it the “Nanda devi”
2nd highest peak in India and the journey was totally worth it.

It is a beautiful capture, why don’t you make it bigger for a better view @Purshottam_Singh ?
Maybe also tell us a bit of the story of how to get there and activities you do up there. It would be great to learn about it.
HI @BorrisS thanks for the comment. I have been travelling from almost last 12 years and explored quite a few places in India and nearby. I use NikonD3200 with 18-55mm and 55-250 lens. The above photo I clicked when I was traveling to uttrakhand, india and the nearest town is joshimath. We went to top of the mountain in Auli which is in joshimath and the top of the mountain you can see this majestic Nanda devi peak which is 2nd highest in india and in the beautiful Himalayan range.
HI @Sophia_Cambodia Thanks for the compliment. Always during winters here in India I love to travel to mountains and in last winters I planned a trip to to this place. Which was really great and beautiful. This place is surrounded by great Himalayan mountain and almost everywhere you see huge mountain covered with snow. Trekking to this place make this trip more adventurous and awesome.
