Trek Highlights
 This
is one of the easier and most popular treks in the Garhwal Himalayas.
Numerous options are available to extend this trek over high passes
into Himachal Pradesh or other valleys in Garhwal. This trek along
the Tons River valley is surrounded by high mountains and dense forests.
For bird watchers this trek is highly recommended in the pre Monsoon
months and the post Monsoon season is ideal for appreciating wild
flowers. Ruinsara Lake is nestled under the Swargrohini Range and
the area is associated with Hindu mythology.
