The Kuari pass trek is amongst the best in
the Garhwal mountains. Kuari pass is probably the best window to view
higher Himalayan peaks. Facing north, the vision sweeps from the gorges of
Trishul in the east to the peaks of Kedarnath in the west.
Kuari Pass is a mountain pass at about 3800 mtrs in the central Garhwal
Himalayan range in Uttarakhand (norhern state of India). The pass is probably
the best window to view the high Himalayan peaks. We face north and see the

Bethartoli, Dunagiri – (all high 6000ers or 7000 m peaks) lined one after the
other in a panoramic arc.

Kauri Trek, as well known as the Curzon Trail takes one through blossoming green
fields, remote villages and the virgin forests. Providing an enchanting sight of
the bounty peaks of Nanda Devi, Dunagiri, Bethartoli and Devasthan, the Kauri
pass trek is amongst the most excellent in the Garhwal Mountains.
The Gohna Tal lake is a special attraction on the route. The close range view of
Mt.Nanda Devi along with numerous other peaks is the reward that awaits the
trekker atop the Kunwari pass. There are two ways through which one can arrive
at the Kauri trek. One is through the Curzon Trail i.e. from Ghat via Ramni. If
one take this trek one gets to notice the royal twin peaks of Nanda Devi, Kamet,
Dronagiri, and Hathi- Ghodi Parvat. Rare Himalayan flora and fauna are found
