Welcomed by a Himalayan background, serene lakes, and lush green forests, Uttrakhand is unmistakably nature's paradise. Visited by tourists all the year round, there are still some unexplored parts of this divine land that you can visit for a truly enthralling experience.

Chopta is one of the lesser explored hill stations of Uttrakhand. It serves as a base camp for treks to Tunganath Temple and Chandrashila peak, and Deoria Tal. And that's not the end of it, a few days in Chopta is an entirely new and different experience. Life in Chopta is like a stand-still, with very little access to the digital world and basic necessities of life, like electricity and warm water.

In this part of the video, I take you to Devprayag - the confluence of Bhagirathi and Alaknanda rivers. The two rivers meet to form Ganga.

Later, we hike to Tunganath temple and this is the first time I am doing snow trekking. The whole experience is so beautiful and fulfilling.
