Monal Top: A hidden Trek in the Himalayas
Monal trek is an nameless Himalayan trek in Chamoli District, Uttarakhand. This trek is these days found through two younger neighborhood enthusiasts, Devendra Pancholi and Heera Singh Garhwali. There is no higher area than this, to witness a lovely daybreak and wintry weather line, Heera Singh said. Monal pinnacle receives its title from the Himalayan Monal, the country fowl of Uttarakhand. This endangered Himalayan fowl can be viewed all through the trek easily. This trek is appropriate for novices as properly as for these who desire to trek with family.
