Throughout the year this region is covered with greenery and beautiful flowers like Brahma Kamal and Fankamal (many others species).

The high mountain chain and the wonderful evergreen valleys lie here and that is the main reason behind the growth of a maximum number of natural vegetation in this high altitude region.

Phulara Ridge Trek Experience of Our Marketing Manager Mr. Kuldeep Rawat

Our Marketing Manager Mr. Kuldeep Rawat a mountaineer shared his childhood experience about the days he spent in the valley of Phulara Ridge as a shepherd he begins with

“We had spent most of childhood in these beautiful valleys with joy and adventures, we often came here usually for flowers like Brahmakamal, fan kamal, etc and also used to ate forest’s vegetables like mushroom and gopak (a type of local vegetable).

I had come here more than 36 times and enjoyed most of the holidays in this valley with my friends, but still,

I do not feel satisfied and want to spend my very precious moments in Phulara Ridge with beautiful nature.

The moments I spend here were the most memorable for me and I am sure also for the trekkers who visited here.

In 2005 Mr. Kuldeep had come here with the herd of cattle for grazing them at least for 2 or 3 months and for 3 years he had done the job of a shepherd.

He ends his lines by saying “nobody can tell you about this beautiful valley and their experiences more than me because I am familiar to each and every creature of this beautiful place”.

Here, Camping under the wonderful stars, perching of birds, and the quiet beauty of the mountain, smell of beautiful flowers and the cool breeze blows along with us creates a peaceful environment in our surroundings.
