Sunderdhunga Trek
The Literal meaning of the word Sunderdhunga is "Valley of beautiful stones", but we assure you that that's not all that is there to it. The trek is a little more rigorous than its better known "cousin's" Pindari and Kafni and at times you would wonder why did you embark on this trip. But once you reach the top you will have all the answers, not for no reason is this valley called Sunderdhunga!
The trip also offers brilliant glimpses of the Tharkot (6100 M), Mrigthuni (6856 M), Maiktoli (6804 M) and Panwali Dwar (6663 meters) peaks apart from the Maiktoli & Sukhram Glaciers that are a bounty to outdoor enthusiasts.
