The monsoon is here, bringing respite from the harsh summer. For trekkers around India, the season also brings with it a big dilemma as they are unable to choose between thrill and caution during the rainy season. Monsoon trekking is exciting to adventure lovers, but going up the slippery mountain hills is often a cause for worry. As a result, only a handful of trekkers set out for some adventures during the rainy months. What if we tell you several routes in India are perfect for the monsoon?
Here are five safe monsoon destinations for trekking that are great for adventure seekers.
Valley of Flowers, Uttarakhand
Located in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand, this is a lush, green, serene landscape where flowers of every shade bloom. This picturesque landscape only opens during the monsoon season, from June to mid-October. This lush wonderland will make you think it is straight out of pictures. This trek spans over 38 km and usually takes four to five days to complete.
Hampta Pass, Himachal Pradesh
For all adventure lovers, Hampta Pass is a great option to choose for your next monsoon trek. This corridor in the Himalayas is located between Chandra and Kullu Valley, which will present you with the best of both worlds—from lush green Kullu Valley to the unique landscape of Spiti Valley. You can complete the journey in four to five days.
Sinhagad Fort, Maharashtra
Just outside Pune, this destination has become a favourite monsoon trekking spot for many adventure lovers. This relatively short trek features a blend of history, nature, and adventure. Monsoon makes the perfect time to trek on this path. The scenery becomes far more beautiful during the season, with lush green forests surrounding the historical structures.
Kumara Parvatha, Karnataka
