Valley of Flowers (215403),Holiday Packages to Joshimath, Hemkund Sahib, Govindghat, Ghangaria, Joshimath

Package Overview

Valley of flowers passes through thick forests, glacier and waterfalls on the way, along with Pushpawati River. Until 1931, the presence of this awe-inspiring valley was unknown to the world. Three British mountaineers Frank S. Smythe, Eric Shipton, and R.L. Holdsworth while returning from an outstanding expedition of Mt. Kamet stumbled upon this fascinating valley full with blooming flowers. Captivated by the astonishing beauty of this place, they named it as the ‘Valley of Flowers’. Later on, Frank S. Smythe also wrote a book about this valley with the same title.

Hemkund Sahib
The Sikhs started to search for Hemkunt sahib, the “Tap Asthan” (the place of meditation) of their tenth Guru, in the late nineteenth century. The first Sikh to trace the geographical location of Hemkund was Pandit Tara Singh Narotam in 1884. The Gurudwara is situated at an altitude of 15,200 ft above sea level and is considered to be one of the highest Pilgrimage in the world
