Kauri Pass Trek

 
Lord Curzon made the trek to Kauri Pass, and since then it has some to be known as curzon's trail. it is very popular among European and American travelers. In 1905, Lord Curzon reached Kauri Pass from Ghat via Ramni. Today many Trekkers prefer to undertake the trek in the reverse direction. They climb the ridge above Tapovan, and reach Gailgarh, where the trail coming pass from Auli bugyal through Garson top. The trek should not be undertaken in winters, as a major portion of the trail is covered with snow. the main attraction of Curzon's trail is the majestic view of the twin peaks of Nanda Devi, Kamet, Dronagiri, and Hathi-Ghodi Parvat. Along the trek we'll pass through pristine Rhododendron, Oak, and Deodar forest. Rare Himalayan flora and fauna are aplenty on the spring are said to have excellent medicinal properties.
