Rishikesh to Chopta by Maharaja Tempo Traveller

12 to 17 passengers · air-conditioned · driver and fuel included

The Rishikesh to Chopta tempo traveller route leads to the "Mini Switzerland of Uttarakhand," a stunning alpine meadow at 2,680m in the Kedarnath Wildlife Sanctuary. Travel via NH7 through Devprayag and Rudraprayag, then branch off at Ukhimath towards the enchanting Chopta meadows. The drive through dense rhododendron, oak, and deodar forests is breathtaking, especially during March-April when the rhododendrons explode in crimson blooms. Chopta is the base for the 3.5 km trek to Tungnath Temple (3,680m) — the highest Shiva temple in the world and one of the Panch Kedar — followed by a 1.5 km climb to Chandrashila Peak (4,000m) for jaw-dropping 360-degree views of Nanda Devi, Trisul, Kedar Peak, and Chaukhamba ranges. The meadows themselves, ringed by snow-capped peaks and dotted with grazing horses, make for an otherworldly camping experience. Deoria Tal, a serene lake reflecting the Chaukhamba peaks, is a 2 km trek from Sari village nearby and is perfect for a group sunrise excursion.

A one-way drop is charged at the same per-km rate as a round trip, because the vehicle still returns to base empty afterwards.
