Day-wise plan
Every day runs on a private cab - the order and pace are yours to change.
1Day 1 - Trip begins at Rishikesh - Rishikesh to Chopta
- Meet your driver in Rishikesh and set off towards Chopta by road.
- The drive climbs steadily through hill country, with river bends, deep valleys and pine slopes opening up along the way.
- Reach your camp or homestay in Chopta by evening, settle in and warm up.
- Dinner and an overnight stay in Chopta.
2Day 2 - Trek to Tungnath and Chandrashila
- After breakfast begin the walk up from Chopta towards Tungnath, said to be the highest Shiva temple anywhere.
- Spend a quiet while at the temple before pushing on to the Chandrashila summit at roughly 12,100 feet.
- From the top you look out over Chaukhamba, Nanda Devi, Kedar Peak, Trishul and Bandarpunch in a wide sweep.
- Roughly 6 km of trekking and about 4 hours on the ascent, through rhododendron forest and open meadow.
- Walk back down to Chopta for dinner and a second night.
3Day 3 - Trip ends at Rishikesh - Deoriatal walk and return to Rishikesh
- Check out after breakfast and drive across to Sari village.
- A short 4 km walk of about one to two hours brings you up to Deoriatal, a still lake that mirrors the Chaukhamba range on a clear morning.
- Walk back down to Sari village at your own pace.
- Drive back to Rishikesh, where the trip ends.
