Harkidun

An 8 km trek from Seema takes to the heavenly picturesque and very less explored Harkidun meadow (3565 m), the abode of the Swargarohini peak (6096 m), Jaundhar glacier and Bharasu pass. The vast meadow of Harkidun is adorned with tall alpine trees and is intersected by the Karmanasha stream. The variety and density of wild flowers during monsoon ranks Harkidun next to the Valley of Flowers. The only man-made structures in the Harkidun valley are the GMVN guest house that stands a few hundred meters from the Forest Rest House. On the eastern side of the valley stands the majestic Swargarohini peak over the Jaundhar glacier while the vast meadow in the north takes to the Bharasu pass which leads to the Sangla Valley of Himachal Pradesh. It is a belief that the Harkidun valley is inhabited by celestial beings and fairies.
