Trekking In Kumaon
Straddling the regions of Garhwal and Kumaon, close to the Tibetan border, Nanda Devi (7816 m), is the geographical and spiritual high point of India. Surrounding the peak is an incredible expanse of mighty 6000 and 7000 metre peaks.
Nanda Devis's inner sancturay is currently off limits to climbers and trekkers. Trekking in Kumaon can be undertaken all the year round. The best visiting periods are April-June and September-November, just because of the vastness of the terrain and altitude differences.

Kumaon - Best Time to Visit
The optimal timing for our trekking trips is between May 1st and June 30th and between September 1st and October 15th. Both seasons have their attractions. During the month of May the spring flowers bloom at the margins of the snowline while the weather is generally settled barring the occasional pre monsoon storm that can blow up at any time. Day time temperatures can rise to the mid 20s even at altitudes while at night they can fall to 0 degrees C. The post monsoon season is a time of settled weather with clear views of the mountains.
