The Guptkashi – Triyuginarayan – Krishna Sarovar - Nagtal Trek combines sacred mythology with Himalayan beauty. From Triyuginarayan Temple (Lord Shiva’s wedding site), it’s a 2-day easy trek perfect for pilgrims, beginners, and nature lovers.
The Himalayas are home to numerous scenic natural beauty destinations that haven't yet found a place on the tourism map. One such beautiful spot is Nagtal, where nature has bestowed its unparalleled beauty. From here, the Himalayan range and lush meadows enhance the unparalleled beauty of nature. From Fata on the Kedarnath National Highway, you can reach Nagtal by road, two kilometers from Jamu, and then a two-kilometer trek. After a climb of approximately one kilometer, a straight, flat path leads to Nagtal. Upon reaching here, one is greeted by the unique beauty of nature. This artistic creativity of nature captivates the mind. The view of the Chaukhamba and Meru-Sumeru peaks, shining like silver in the morning sunlight, is breathtaking.

Musk deer, bears, and many other species of birds and animals are found here in abundance. Due to a lack of information, this place remains out of sight of tourists. However, the Tourism Department is now preparing an action plan to bring this place onto the tourism map.
