The story

It only exists in July and August. The rest of the year it is snow, and for a few weeks after the melt the whole valley floor turns into something people struggle to describe without sounding ridiculous.

Three hundred flowering species, blue poppies, cobra lilies, primula in drifts, running up a glacial valley at around 3,600 metres with the Himalaya standing over it. Frank Smythe found it in 1931 by accident, having got lost coming off Kamet.

What happens

The plan as the operator runs it. Start times and pickup are confirmed for your date.

  1. Early from Ghangaria, the 4km climb into the park, several hours in the valley itself, and back down before the gate closes. It is a long day on foot.
