Kuari Pass is one of the oldest treks in India, dating back to the 1800s. Lord Curzon, who was the Viceroy of India from 1899 to 1905, visited this route, hence the name "Lord Curzon Trail. One highlight is the breathtaking view of Nanda Devi, the highest peak in India within Indian borders. The trek starts with a drive to Dhak Village, just 12 kilometers from Joshimath. The path goes through beautiful oak and rhododendron forests, especially colorful in spring. Throughout the trek, your senses will be treated to stunning views of several prominent mountain peaks like Nanda Devi, Dronagiri Parbat, Hathi Parbat, Ghori Parbat and many more.

The distance from Dehradun to Joshimath is 284 kilometers, taking about 9 to 10 hours via NH7. We’ll leave Dehradun early in the morning to enjoy the beautiful drive. Along the way, we’ll see four of the five Panch Prayags, where rivers meet. First is Devprayag, where the Alaknanda meets the Bhagirathi to form the Ganga. Next is Rudraprayag (Alaknanda and Mandakini), followed by Karnaprayag (Alaknanda and Pindar), and finally Nandprayag (Alaknanda and Nandakini).
These rivers enhance our journey. We’ll spend the night in Joshimath to rest for the next day’s drive and hike. Tip: Arrive in Rishikesh a day early to avoid delays and explore the city.
