Trekkers pass through traditional villages like Osla, experience local culture, and witness stunning peaks such as Swargarohini. The valley is also known as the “Valley of Gods”, making it a perfect blend of adventure, nature, and mythology.
Trekkers need to obtain a forest permit as the trek lies within the Govind Pashu Vihar National Park. These permits are usually arranged by trekking companies. Additionally, carrying a valid ID proof is mandatory for verification at checkpoints.
