About the Har Ki Dun Trek

Har Ki Dun, often called the “Valley of Gods,” is one of the most beautiful and culturally rich trekking destinations in the Garhwal Himalayas.

Hidden deep inside the Govind Pashu Vihar National Park, this ancient valley is surrounded by magnificent Himalayan peaks, dense forests, alpine meadows, and traditional mountain villages that have preserved their unique culture for generations.

The journey begins from the remote village of Kotgaon and follows the beautiful Supin River through the remote villages of Gangad and Osla. As the trail progresses deeper into the valley, the landscape opens into the spectacular Har Ki Dun valley, surrounded by towering Himalayan peaks.
