The Kuari Pass trek will adventure your mind
Here I was at the base of Kuari Pass trail, backpacking my way to reach the Pangarchulla Peak.
It all started when I decided to go on my first Himalayan trek. Two months and a lot of researching later began the soul-searching journey from Bangalore – Delhi – Haridwar – Rishikesh – Auli– kuari pass – Pangrachulla Peak. 30 people from different parts of the country with different ethnicities and backgrounds gathered together to be part of the mystic Himalayas.
Build Mountaining easily.
During winters, the Pangarchulla peak hike is on the technical side(with gears and harnesses) and is on the intermediate side. This trek was special to me since it involved a lot of firsts – first Himalayan trek, first time camping, first time experiencing and trekking on snow.
Sigh! I breathed heavily once again and wiped the beads of sweat off my face. My backpack was getting heavier by the minute. Lack of preparation for high altitude was evident. Oblivious to all the noise around me, I was lost battling my own thoughts on how I ended up here in the first place.

Great opportunity for adventure & travels
Enroute to Kuari Pass and Pangarchulla peak, each step was a delight.
The pristine blue sky seemed fictitious after being used to the gloomy city skies. And the surrounding snow-capped mountains seemed so majestic and alluring with its tales and enigmas locked within its magnificent stature. And the sky full of scintillating stars forging a magical setup.
The bustling of the trees and the chirping of birds all around felt like a lullaby in the arms of nature. A gentle stream of freezing water splashed against my face gave a refreshing feeling.
In the mountains, it is really living in the moment.
