No crowds, no chaos: This remote Himalayan valley in Uttarkhand feels frozen in time

While Nainital, Mussoorie, and Rishikesh continue to pull in thousands of visitors every year, a few precious pockets of Uttarakhand still have low rates of footfall. Hidden in the extreme eastern edges, right around the borders of Tibet and Nepal is the Darma Valley. It is a secluded Himalayan haven where age-old traditions and still alive. Surrounded by mountain peaks and glacial waters, this valley gives travellers an opportunity to witness the most unspoilt region of Himalayas. The place has small narrow trails, no network, and natural wold where everything feels perfect.
