Auli is located in the northern part of the state and forms part of the Garhwal mountain range. It is located 16 km from Joshimath on the Badrinath route. The slopes-which are as high as 9000 feet above sea level-are covered with dense deodar and oak forests, which often reduce the velocity of chilly winds to the minimum. Auli hill station offers a panoramic view of many famous Himalayan peaks, like Nanda Devi, Kamet, Mana Parvat, and Dunagiri.Â
Auli is one of the less-explored hill stations in India. Located in the northern state of Uttarakhand, Auli hill station is a new entrant in the tourist map of India. Auli skiing adventure should be on your bucket list. It is a must-do activity in Auli, and many adventure seekers recommend Auli as the best place for skiing. Located in the cradle of snow-capped mountains, Auli hill station is one of the very few places in India where skiing is a major pastime. Gradually, Auli is growing like other hill stations in India. The bitter cold winds, the vast snow-covered landscape, and the sylvan mountains all add up to make Auli an ideal locale for skiers. Skiers are provided with clean stretches of 10-20 km of snow-covered mountain slopes. Besides, there is a descent of 1,640 Ft. from the ridge over a stretch of 3 km. The forests on the slopes also seem to help skiers by reducing wind velocity. In February and March, Auli often hosts the National Winter Games.Â
Chopta, known popularly as the ‘mini Switzerland’ of Uttarakhand, is a slice of paradise tucked away in the Garhwal Himalayas. Surrounded by bugyals-or velvety meadows and pristine snow-capped peaks-Chopta is an all-year holiday destination: pleasant in summer, rain-fresh in monsoon, and a snow-clad fairyland in winter. Chopta is at the epicenter of the Panch Kedar-the five most sacred Shiva temples in the state. On its left are located Kedarnath and Madmaheshwar shrines and on the right, are Rudranath and Kalpeshwar, and just above it is the Tungnath temple. Chopta is a birding paradise and is home to over 240 species of birds. These include native and migratory species like the Himalayan monal, Himalayan swiftlet, Himalayan griffon, scarlet finch, hill partridge, and many others. The Tungnath trek route is the best place for watching our feathered friends. Chopta has been declared an important bird-watching site by national and international conservation and biodiversity organizations.
