It is the last human habitation in the Bhyundar valley. This place is usually used by travelers as a base camp to visit Hemkund and Valley of flowers.[1] It is only open from May till September. The rest of the year, the valley is covered under snow. Ghangaria can be reached after a trek of less than 11 km. Shared taxis are available up to 4 km from Govindghat.
