Description
Join us on 31st May 2026, from 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM, for Misty Himalayan Forest Bird Walks, a refreshing early summer morning experience under Pangot EARTH WALKS, set in the serene forests of Pangot in the breathtaking Kumaon Himalaya.
Starting from Jungle Lore Birding Lodge, this guided nature walk led by Kundan Kumar is thoughtfully designed for beginners, families, students, photographers, and anyone eager to experience the vibrant birdlife and peaceful forest atmosphere of the Himalayas.
