Chopta Tungnath New Year Special Overview

Chopta, often called the “Mini Switzerland of India,” is a serene hill station nestled in Uttarakhand. Situated at an altitude of 2,680 meters, it serves as the gateway to the sacred Tungnath Temple—the highest Shiva temple in the world at 3,680 meters. The trail also leads to the stunning Chandrashila Peak, offering breathtaking 360° Himalayan views.

Surrounded by the Kedarnath Wildlife Sanctuary, Chopta is rich in biodiversity and blessed with magnificent landscapes. With uninterrupted views of Nanda Devi, Trishul, and Chaukhamba, it attracts trekkers, photographers, and nature lovers throughout the year.

Chopta–Tungnath is a must-visit for trekkers exploring the Panch Kedar circuit and for spiritual travelers seeking peace in the Himalayas. In summer, the meadows come alive with lush greenery, while winter blankets the region in shimmering snow, transforming Chopta into a magical paradise.
