Sudarshan Parvat         

Sudarshan Parvat has beauty as well as challenge. It is a sight fit for the Gods. Situated above the Gangotri Temple it has been seen by millions of pilgrims and mountaineers through the ages. The view from the top is grand. All the Gangotri Peaks and valley, a little of Tibet and all the neighboring peaks can be seen.

 It gets its name from Sudarshan, the weapon which Lord Krishna or Vishnu holds in his hand. It is believed to be released in the ultimate crisis.

The history of Sudarshan is brief though spread over 19 years. It was attempted by 5 expeditions. Mostly by the west ridge and once of the south ridge. The last attempt was in 1979 when the climbers reached high on the west ridge.

Chandrashila, Chamoli   

Chandrashila is most accessible peak of the Uttaranchal Himalayas, especially since most of the peaks are difficult to scale. A climb to this mini peak in Chamoli District is arranged by GMVN. This combines scaling,

skiing and trekking through a route of rich flora and fauna, lakes, meadows full of fresh snow in the winter month. The chandrashila peaks itself provides a rare panoramic view of innumerable snow clad peaks.

Chaturbhuj           

Chaturbhuj, situated north of Sudarshan Parvat, literally means ' one with four hands'. This is the name for Lord Vishnu who has four hands and holds the Sudarshan Chakra.

 This peak has four distinct ridged falling in four directions, thus both mythologically as well as topographically this name is appropriate. The summit of Chaturbhuj is a conical pyramid, very steep, 15 Mts. long and 2 Mts. high.

Valley of Bhilangna,Tehri Garhwal

The Khatling Glacier is a lateral glacier at the source of the River Bhilangna. Shastratal and Masartal are on the west and east of it.

 The valley of Bhilangna offers panoramic views of the snow-capped peaks and hanging glaciers, such as Jogin Group, Kirti Stambh and Meru Parvat, which are sublime and magnificent.

Nadakot         

This 'Fort of Nanda' is an imposing peak dividing the Gori and Pindari valleys. Dr. Longstaff in 1905 and 1936 the Japanese made the first ascent on it.

 An Indian team in 1956 climbed it again. In 1986 the Indo Japanese made another ascent to celebrate the fifty years of their first ascent.
