Nestled in the heart of Uttarakhand, Chopta is often referred to as the “Mini Switzerland of India” — a serene alpine meadow surrounded by towering deodars and snow-capped peaks. But Chopta isn’t just about beauty — it’s the gateway to one of the most spiritual and scenic treks in the Garhwal Himalayas: Tungnath, the highest Shiva temple in the world. At Ride With Himalayas, we take you on a curated journey through this untouched paradise, blending adventure, serenity, and deep cultural connection.
Our trip begins in Rishikesh or Dehradun, leading you through winding mountain roads, lush forests, and quaint villages toward Chopta. This offbeat gem, far from commercial chaos, offers crisp mountain air, uninterrupted views of Nanda Devi, Chaukhamba, and Trishul peaks, and a peaceful environment perfect for those seeking a break from urban life.
With Ride With Himalayas, your experience is designed to be immersive and stress-free. Whether you’re a seasoned trekker or a first-time mountain traveler, we ensure every step is well-paced, guided, and meaningful. Our expert ride captains and local guides are not just navigators — they are storytellers, nature lovers, and safety experts, ensuring your journey is as inspiring as it is secure.
The trek to Tungnath, about 3.5 km from Chopta, is moderate yet magical. Surrounded by rhododendron forests and vast meadows, every bend on the trail offers breathtaking Himalayan vistas. As you reach the sacred Tungnath Temple, standing tall at 3,680 meters, the spiritual energy and panoramic views leave a lasting impression. For those who want more adventure, an additional 1.5 km trail leads to Chandrashila Peak, one of the best sunrise viewpoints in the region.
Our Chopta–Tungnath tours also include warm campsites or cozy guesthouses, hearty local meals, and thoughtful amenities like backup support and first aid. Whether it’s a hot chai under the stars or a quiet morning yoga session with a view, we make sure your time here is as rejuvenating as it is memorable.
But the journey doesn’t end at the summit. With Ride With Himalayas, we also explore nearby gems like Deoriatal Lake, where the reflection of Chaukhamba Peak on still waters is a sight to behold. We also weave in cultural encounters with locals, giving you a deeper appreciation of the mountain lifestyle and traditions.
Every aspect of the Chopta–Tungnath experience is customized to your pace and interest — be it photography, meditation, birdwatching, or just unplugging from the digital world. We handle all the logistics — transport, stays, permits, meals — so you can stay present and connected with nature.
With Ride With Himalayas, Chopta–Tungnath isn’t just a trek or a weekend getaway. It’s a soulful escape into the untouched beauty of the Himalayas, where the silence speaks, the winds heal, and the mountains tell ancient stories.
