Panchchuli Peaks - Adventure Awaits!

The name 'Panchchuli' is deeply rooted in Hindu mythology, linked to the epic Mahabharata. Local legend says these five peaks are where the Pandava brothers, along with Draupadi, prepared their final meal before their ascent to Swargarohini (the path to heaven). The peaks have been revered by locals for centuries, considered sacred and imbued with spiritual significance. While documented historical records are scarce, the region has been a traditional trade route between India and Tibet. More recently, the peaks gained prominence as a trekking destination, attracting adventurers and mountaineers from around the globe. Several expeditions have attempted to scale these challenging peaks, adding to their allure and mystique. Their imposing presence has shaped the cultural landscape of the Johar Valley for generations.
