Tungnath (3Kms.) Situated at an elevation of about 3,680Mts.above sea level, the temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. Enroute exotic varieties of rhododendrons, while flowers and shrub like trees can be seen in abundance. Kanchula Korak Musk Deer Sanctuary (74Kms.) On the Chopta Gopeshwar road, Kanchula Korak Musk Deer Sanctuary is famous for breeding musk deer.This Sanctuary covers an area of 5 sq. Mts. and is an ideal place for tourists to view rare Himalayan wildlife. This place is also popular for its dense forests and natural aromatic flowers. Tungnath is situated in the Chamoli district of Garhwal in Uttarakhand. located at an altitude of 12,070 feet (3680 meters), is the third and highest of the Panch Kedar or five Himalayan temples consecrated to Shiva. It is believed to contain the arm as per the Panch Kedar tradition of Hinduism. All five of the Panch Kedars are mostly accessible only on foot, and each are located at such a great height that they close in the winter, since this is when they become snowbound. The footpath to Tungnath starts at the small town of Chopta, and is a steep walk, reaching over 3000 feet in just 3.5 kilometers. You can hire a horse to ride up to the temple. On the way, you will witness exotic forms of rhododendrons, wild flowers and shrubs. Nestling among temperate forests, the origins of the Tungnath temple are immersed in myths and legends. Locals consider the temple to have been built by the Pandavas to propitiate Lord Shiva, who had been angered by the large scale bloodshed at Kurukshetra. According to a popular legend, during Lord Shiva’s struggle with the Pandava brothers, he took the form of a bull. After he was chased down, his body parts dematerialised at five different locations in the Kedarnath valley that represent the Panch Kedar where Pandavas built temples of Lord Shiva at each location, to worship and seek his pardon and blessings. It is believed that Shiva’s arms were fallen of here at Tungnath.
We really appreciated the advice our travel agent provided prior to finalizing our trip itinerary and then the detailed planning on his part to put it all together. Everyone who was to meet with us did. Everyone was very helpful, especially the guides whose knowledge of their area was phenomenal. Tasting local food and refreshments and the accommodations in small interesting hotels is the most enjoyable and memorable part of the trip.

This travel agency put together an amazing itinerary for a week in Uttarakhand for our family. We planned this trip without a lot of lead time and our travel agency was quick to respond and made sure our needs, and the needs of our 2 year-old were taken care of. They booked wonderful centrally located boutique hotels in each of the cities we visited. We were looking for a relaxing week to explore Uttarakhand, and that is exactly what we had..

We had an unbelievable time in Uttarakhand this winter. Allseasonsz travel agency provided us with excellent hotels, located in the center of the cities, comfortable, and close to the main sights and trendy restaurants. The guides and drivers for our private tours were phenomenal - very knowledgable and well spoken. We have a family of 6, so they arranged transportation for us in a private van, which was beyond convenient! Lastly, they added stops to our itinerary, that I myself would not have chosen. But those spots ended up being some of our favorite places to see! Our travel agency was also extremely flexible in working with us - they respected our desire to have some downtime with the family, as well as making reservations for us at wonderful restaurants!
