Overview

About the Destination: 

The excitement and allurement of the Chopta Tungnath Chandrashila Trek starts right from the beginning. The occasionally steep climbs will not feel like uphill tasks as you walk through jungle trails surrounded by oak and birch trees, or, through verdant meadows filled with rhododendrons. The placid beauty of the place is punctuated by the chirping of birds, the soft laughter of a brook as it rolls over stones on the way and the whispering wind. The view of snow-capped mountain peaks against the backdrop of the beautiful Devariyatal or the breathtaking Chopta valley is an excellent ingredient for a perfect trekking experience. A walk through nature gives you ample opportunities to soak in the different moods of nature as they unravel at every step.

About the Departure: 

A perfect blend of excitement, allurement, amazement culminating in ultimate admiration is what summarises the Chopta Tungnath Chandrashila trek. The first part of the trek is through a jungle of conifer trees, rhododendrons and ferns. The tall pine trees give you glimpses of snow capped peaks which can be clearly viewed from the emerald lake of Devariyatal. The forest gradually recedes and opens up to the spectacular Chopta valley. Explore the place before proceeding towards a tryst with another divine experience at Tungnath and Chandrashilla Top. The Top offers an all round view of some well-known peaks and many not so known that blend in layers of blue ranges. The trek is rough at times but not difficult at all. Enjoy the camping experience as you stay amidst nature experiencing its smell, sights and sounds to the fullest.

Temperature Range: March to May: 10 C – 25 C, November to March: 5 C. - 15 C

    My experience with Thrillophilia in Chopta-Chandrashila was superb! Our accommodation was quite decent, and food was great! the coordination too was good. Deorital was a very good experience, beaten only by the next day's Tungnath-Chandrashila. It was my first experience with snow, and it was simply amazing! I would however rate this trek, at least in winter/snow, as moderate trek; it is surely not an easy stroll. Got to make a lot of new friends, and had a great time overall! Special mention of Monu- our trek guide, amazing guide! Had a wonderful time! The only bad part of the experience was the roads- pretty horrible through the length, due to dust resulting from near continuous construction work. Would definitely recommend this trek to anyone looking for a short (4 day) hike.

    The feel of the Chopta Tungnath Chandrashila trek was really amazing. We were a group of few beginners and the trek got completed in an exciting way. We as beginners did faced a bit of challenges but I think, if you already have experience in trekking this is the trek you should go for.

    Nothing can be more pleasant than walking on tiny trails in hills, trust me guys, even 4-5 hours of walk is just nothing when you are getting so much in return.

    Throughout my trip to Chopta Tungnath Chandrashila, I was reminded of the nature poems that I read in schools. There is a huge difference in watching these hills on a computer screen and watching through your eyes…I’m lucky I not only saw them but lived every moment of my trip.

    It’s good that some places are inaccessible to humans…coz that’s what adds more to its beauty.
