India Pilgrim Tours’ Kuari Pass ‘The Lord Curzon Trail’ hiking package lasts 9 nights and 10 days. This route is very popular among national and international trekkers. Lord Curzon landed at Kuari Pass in 1905 and made the subsequent walk, which is now known as The Curzon Trail.
This walk is not only moderately strenuous, but it also allows you to marvel at the grandeur of the Garhwal Himalayan region. You pass through pastures, meadows, and forests, as well as climb and stroll along stream banks.
Meet our IPT tour agent when you arrive at the Delhi Airport or Railway Station so they can assist with your escorted transfer to Rishikesh. Complete the check-in procedures at the pre-booked hotel once you arrive in Rishikesh.
You are free to partake in your interests after taking some time to unwind. The Ashrams, Ram Jhula, Laxman Jhula, and the mesmerising Aarti at the Ganga ghats are just a few of the city's attractions. This sacred town has been dubbed many things, including "The Yoga Capital of India" and "The Gateway to the Garhwal Himalayas." Dinner and a night in Rishikesh are included.
After an early breakfast on the second day of the tour, travel by road to Ghat through Devprayag (Rivers Alaknanda and Bhagirathi), Rudraprayag (Rivers Alaknanda and Mandakani), Karnprayag (Rivers Alaknanda and Pindar), and Nandprayag (Rivers Alaknanda and Nandakini). The four Garhwal Himalayan confluences are the most well-known ones. Ghat, a picturesque village in the area, is well-known for its beauty. Set up your camps for an overnight stay after you arrive to Ghat.
After breakfast, get on a typical Himalayan village vehicle and travel to Selu Bagar. It resembles a tiny point with a few shops or shacks in it, and it serves as the beginning point for the walk. It takes roughly 30 minutes to get here. You now encounter the horses and the porters. On this route of average difficulty, the trek begins.
You pass through the Ramni and Ghunni village villages en route. This section of road is particularly intriguing because you can observe locals going about their daily business, gorgeous Himalayan homes, and more. You journey to an open plateau directly above Ghunni after passing by a few village groups. You pitch your tents here to spend the night. Enjoy your meal and a restful night's sleep.
Today's long trip must be enjoyed while taking in some of the most breathtaking sights, thus it is imperative that you eat breakfast early and set out on the trail early. You are transported by train to the ridge's summit, above the Ghunni campground.
You reach an open floral meadow after crossing the crest, where you may take in a breathtaking vista of the Himalayan gems Chaukahmba and Nandsa Gunti. Additionally, there are lovely views of the now-submerged settlements of Ghunni and Ramni. Once you've had some time to relax, resume your hike through rhododendron woodland and later pasture grasslands, where you can see some nomadic homes, cattle, and sheep. The trail becomes challenging from here until becoming easy once more.
The Nanda Ghunti summit is clearly visible from the broad meadow where you enter. As you continue on the trail, you will reach Vinayak Pass, which is indicated by a small temple and a prayer flag. Admire the stunning vistas of the Himalayan peaks and a far-off glimpse of the Kuari pass from this pass. After there, there is a difficult walk through Sem Kharak before reaching Jhinjhi village. You should put up your encampment here. Dinner and a night's rest.
After breakfast on the fifth day, start your hike. Enjoy the sounds and views of the Jhinjhi village residents. From here, the trail descends through the settlement, then follows the valley floor till it ends at a suspension bridge that crosses over Birahi Ganga village.
Take the bridge that leads you to the right side of the valley. Continue on your journey via a zigzag section until you reach a ridge that provides views of the adjacent Himalayan villages and peaks. The picturesque rhododendron forests that transport you to the Kaliagad community in Pana village are something you pass through. Reach the campsite in the village after about a kilometre of downward walking. Staying in tents for dinner and the night.
Day 6: Start the walk after breakfast. It will take you above the campsite, over a rhododendron woodland, past a couple fall peaks, and eventually to the ridge. Continue your slow ascent until you reach Sartoli Meadow, a sheep and cow pasture.
You can see the Kurai Pass from here, where you can also start a short, downhill journey. Later on in the hike, you'll need to descend along the stream's edge and then climb extremely steeply over some loose glacial debris. You should utilise trekking poles in this location.
After you have crossed the brook, a sharp ascent will take you to the top of the ridge. The track continues upward until it leads you to another side stream beneath Dhakwani (3300 metres). For around 30 minutes, climb to the campsite. Set up camp when you get to your location, sip a cup of tea, and take in the scenery. Staying in tents for dinner and the night.
So that you won't miss some spectacular views at the pass, you get up early today and begin your walk. As you near the tree line, climb through the woodland. From here, you go through valley oasis on the left before making several switchbacks to the right to reach the Kuari Pass (3800 metres). You may see some absolutely stunning views of the Himalayan peaks covered in snow from this route.
Don't forget to take pictures. Following some downtime, continue your walk in a slightly ascending direction until you reach a hump with a nice view of Dronagiri summit. From here, you climb down to a point that leads you to the place where Tali and Tapovan diverge. As you travel on towards Tali, you eventually reach a location with a temple and prayer flags.
Enjoy the views of the Nanda Devi peak for a while. Now that you have travelled through pastureland and a forest, you have reached your campsite in Tali. Dinner and a night's rest.
Day 8 is a simpler day. After breakfast, make a short ascent across the mountain crest, which later becomes narrow and requires careful ascent to reach Gorson Meadows. The Himalayas are now totally enclosing you. Observe the towering Nanda Devi mountain in awe. Gorson Meadow is crossed over in a pleasant manner.
You have now travelled a few kilometres and can see Auli. The porters and the ponies are bid farewell at this point. You board a jeep at Auli and drive 13 km to (2550 metres), which is located there. Joshimath, also known as Jyotirmath, is a lovely hill town in addition to being a well-known religious hub. Register at your hotel and get some rest. Dinner and a night in the hotel you've already reserved.
On the ninth day of the journey, eat breakfast first thing in the morning. Drive in the direction of Rishikesh. Stop at Rudraprayag, where the Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers converge, en route. Eat your lunch as you travel. After you arrive in Rishikesh, check into your hotel and do the check-in procedures. It is entirely up to you whether you want to take a city tour or just unwind in your room. Dinner and a night in a hotel in Rishikesh.
After breakfast on the final day of the tour, depart for Delhi. Get a drop-off with assistance at the Delhi Airport or Railway Station before boarding a train or a flight for your next destination.

If you’re travelling to India, our travel advice and updates give you practical tips and useful information.

If you over-stay your visa, you will be fined and may be prosecuted or detained and later deported. If you lose your passport, you will have to obtain an exit visa before you can leave India.
If you are transiting through India, you may need a transit visa if you must collect your baggage to transfer it to another airline or if you are travelling on multiple bookings. Baggage collection areas in Indian airports are normally after clearing immigration.
Visa Policy for India
India’s visa policy outlines the requirements, rules, and regulations for foreign nationals traveling to the South Asian country.
The vast majority of visitors from abroad require a visa for India. There are different types of visa available, depending on the nationality of the traveler, the length of time they plan to stay in the country, and the purpose of the visit.
The electronic visa or e-Visa for India is available for the majority of nationalities. It can be obtained by completing a simple online application form. The India e-Visa is processed quickly and delivered to the applicant by email.
Three types of e-Visa for India exist: the India Tourist e-Visa, the India Medical e-Visa, and the India Business e-Visa. Each of these permits foreign nationals to stay in India for a short period of time for the specified purpose.
Citizens of a number of countries are not able to apply online and must obtain a visa from an Indian embassy instead.
Indian embassy visas and permits are also available for foreign nationals who wish to relocate to India, work or study in the country, or stay for longer periods than the e-Visas permit.
According to the visa policy of India, nationals of a select few sovereign states may enter the country visa-free and stay indefinitely. They also have the right to live and work in India without requiring any visas or permits.
Citizens of one country, the Maldives, may enter India visa-free for up to 90 days.
Tourist Visa Policy for India
Foreign nationals visiting India for tourism must obtain an Indian tourist visa, with the exception of the small number of visa-exempt nationalities.
There are 2 types of tourist visa for India: the electronic visa and the consular visa.
Visitors from most countries are eligible to apply online for the India e-Visa. There are several types of e-Visa for India, depending on the purpose of the visit. One of these is the India Tourist e-Visa. This permits the holder to visit the country for up to 90 consecutive days for the purpose of tourism.
This is available as a multiple-entry visa that permits the holder to visit the country for up to 90 consecutive days for the purpose of tourism (180 days for some nationalities). It is also available as a double-entry e-Visa that permits a total stay of 30 days.
Citizens of around 70 countries must instead apply for a tourist visa for India at an overseas diplomatic mission like an embassy or consulate.
All foreign nationals who intend to stay in India for more than 90 days as a tourist must obtain the relevant Indian visa from an embassy.
Visitors from a select few countries do not require a visa to visit India as a tourist, although one of these has a limit of 90 days (for longer stays, an embassy visa is required).
Regardless of which Indian tourist visa is needed, international travelers must provide supporting documents and meet the necessary requirements when completing their application.
India's transport system is constantly being improved to accommodate the nation's over one billion residents. Today, both locals and visitors can travel via bus, taxi, ferry, modern rail system, and more than 30 international airports. Due to the abundance of possibilities, moving around densely populated cities is often considerably simpler than doing so in rural areas.
Every traveler's voyage will be unique as a result of this reality. When making your India itinerary, make sure to investigate not just where you're going and how you're going to get there, but also how much each method of transportation will cost. Take a bus or rail instead of flying, for instance, if you plan to travel primarily within one region of the country. However, if time is of the essence and you need to get between two major cities that are spread out across the nation, flying can be your only choice.
If you intend to stay in one place for several days, you can save money by biking, walking, using a rickshaw, or calling a taxi. Just be mindful of the security of various modes of transportation, as walking might be a little risky in areas without clearly defined pavements.
Similar to this, city roadways are frequently quite congested with vehicles, motorcycles, rickshaws, and even cows. While hiring a motorbike or bicycle could be less expensive, you might feel safer spending a little more money on a more secure choice. This is especially true for travellers to India for the first time.
It is mandatory for all tourists (other than Nepal, Bhutanese) to obtain a Indian Visa before travelling to India. The Indian visa has to be processed via a government approved travel agency.
Next we will send you the visa confirmation code. You must carry a printed copy of the visa confirmation code and your flight tickets as these need to be produced at the check-in counter at Paro International Airport.

Things to keep in mind before selecting a destination
When a traveler's mind desires to visit the beaches, mountains, or a forest, there is nothing to say. However, understanding how to plan a trip successfully requires selecting the appropriate destination based on the season.
Find out when is the best time to visit each destination. The best time to visit beaches and mountains is usually different. When choosing a destination, keep the cost in mind. Some locations are more enjoyable to visit on a luxury budget than others. Going to a luxury destination during the shoulder season (a few weeks before or after the official 'busy season') can result in some good hotel and flight discounts.
People should prioritise traveller safety before embarking on their journey (especially solo female travelers).
Accessibility, or lack thereof, is another factor that can influence whether or not a person chooses to visit a particular location. To support the tourist influx, popular destinations generally have a large number of daily flights, trains, and good highway infrastructure.
