Uttarakhand Holidays
Tour Overview
Uttarakhand Holidays The Himalayas running through the exquisitely charming state of Uttarakhand leave behind the majestic trail of soaring peaks and lush green valleys. Thick jungles, picturesque lakes, meandering rivers and spectacular landscapes dominate the entire canvas.
Uttarakhand is not only known for its majestic Himalayas and scenic beauty but also for its rare natural and cultural distinctions. The state is home to five of India’s most sacred rivers—the Ganga, Yamuna, Alaknanda, Mandakini, and Bhagirathi—many of which originate from glaciers hidden deep within its high mountains. Uttarakhand hosts India’s first national park, Jim Corbett, and also shelters some of the oldest living forests of the subcontinent. Several villages here, such as Mana near Badrinath, are considered the last inhabited villages before the Indo-Tibetan border. The region also preserves ancient Himalayan traditions like Van Devta (forest deity) worship, reflecting a rare harmony between people and nature. With its mix of untouched biodiversity, ancient pilgrimage routes, glacial lakes, and mystical mountain passes, Uttarakhand remains one of the few places where spirituality, wilderness, and history exist in their purest forms.
Uttarakhand offers a rare blend of divine energy, natural beauty, and timeless culture, making it truly unlike any other place.

Kagbhusandi Lake Trek
Kagbhushudi Lake trek has lately garnered a lot of attention among the famous trekking sites. The lake is located in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand (Dev Bhoomi), near Mana village, close to Badrinath.”
Kagbhushundi Ji is one of the most profound and mystical figures in the Ramcharitmanas. He represents timeless devotion (bhakti) and is deeply associated with Lord Shiva and the eternal narration of the Ram Katha.
In Uttarkand of the Ramcharitmanas, after Doha 61, the subsequent chaupais describe the dialogue between Sage Kakbhushundi and Garuda. These verses narrate:
"उत्तर दिसि सुंदर गिरि नीला। तहँ रह काकभुसुण्डि सुसीला॥"
According to the Ramcharitmanas, Lord Shiva directed Garuda to Sage Kakbhushundi and said that he continuously narrates the sacred story of Lord Shri Ramachandra. Birds of many noble kinds listen to this divine narration with deep reverence. By hearing it, the sorrow born of delusion would be removed. Following Lord Shiva’s guidance, Garuda went to the place where Sage Kakbhushundi lived, endowed with unwavering wisdom and perfect devotion. On beholding that mountain, Garuda’s heart was filled with joy, and all illusion, attachment, and anxiety vanished merely by its sight. There, aged birds had gathered to listen to the beautiful deeds of Lord Rama. On seeing that supremely pure hermitage itself, all of Garuda’s delusion, doubts, and various confusions were completely dispelled.
This section of Uttarkand forms the scriptural basis for the spiritual significance of the Kakbhushundi region and trek in the Garhwal Himalayas.
The Kagbhushundi Lake Trek is not only an adventure but also a spiritual journey. It is associated with Kakbhushundi Ji, the immortal crow-form devotee of Lord Rama, who resides on Neelkanth Mountain and has narrated the Ram Katha to Garuda Ji.
