    ABOUT

    Mt. Nanda Ghunti EXPEDITION

    Mt. Nanda Ghunti (6309 m), also known as the “Veil of Goddess Nanda Devi,” is a mountain in the Nanda Devi National Park in the Garhwal Himalayas. This huge mountain, along with the mighty trident-shaped Trishul massif, may be seen from the famed Roopkund trek. Serious climbing enthusiasts seeking a challenge have flocked to Mt. Nanda Ghunti. Despite the fact that it is not technically tough, the peak is known for its unpredictable weather and crevasses on the way to the summit. Mt. Trishul, Chaukhamba massif, Kamet, Nanda Devi, Dronagiri, and many more peaks can be seen from the summit.
