Description
Join us for a refreshing early spring morning at Pangot EARTH WALKS, set in the serene forests of Pangot, nestled within the breathtaking Kumaon Himalaya.
This guided nature walk is thoughtfully designed for beginners, families, students, photographers, and anyone eager to experience the magic of Himalayan forests at an easy and enjoyable pace. Led by naturalist Kundan Kumar, the walk begins from Jungle Lore Birding Lodge and takes you along peaceful oak and pine forest trails alive with bird calls and seasonal forest activity.
As the mountain breeze flows through the canopy, participants will observe Himalayan forest birds, learn to identify them by their calls and behaviour, and understand how wind, season, and habitat shape mountain ecosystems in early spring.
