About the Place
The Rajgundha trek in the Kangra region is a lesser-known offbeat trek. While trekking, you will come across some amazing sights like waterfalls, green valleys, wooden bridges, meadows of many hues, and many other such beautiful places before finally arriving at your campsite.
A small village lying between the Dhauladhar Ranges, Rajgundha Valley is not connected by any roads. Away from the hustle of the city traffic is one of the reasons for this trek for being a popular trekking spot for all the adventure enthusiasts and nature lovers.
The Rajgundha Village is referred with its twin village, Kukkar Gundha which has the utmost beauty and is still untouched. The Rajgundha Village is situated at a height of approximately 8900 ft. There are also a couple of villages in the Rajgundha valley which are connected to each other which can only be reached via walking or by hiring a mule.
The Rajgundha 360° Trek is a 12km hike from billing to Rajgundha via Chenna Pass and a 4km hike from Badagraan to Rajgundha. Surrounded by the Dhauladhar Mountain ranges, amidst the clouds and the view of the Milky Way with billions of stars at night is just a very small description of the Rajgundha 360° trek.
‘Heaven on Earth’ waiting to be explored is exactly what it feels like when you stay in the Rajgundha Valley.
