Kauri Pass Trek (In The Shadow Of Nanda Devi) Tour

Package Overview

Lord Curzon made the trek to Kuari pass, and since then it has come to be known as
Curzon's trail. It is very popular among European and American Travelers. In 1905 Lord
Curzon reached Kauari pass from Ghat via Ramni. Today many trekkers prefer to
undertake the trek in the reverse direction. The main attraction of Curzon's trails is the
majestic view of the twin peaks of Nanda Devi, Kamet, Dronagiri and Hathi-Ghodi
Parvat.
