Introduction: The Sanctuary of the Goddess
Hidden deep within the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand’s Chamoli district lies the Nanda Devi National Park—one of the most spectacular wilderness areas on earth. Established in 1982 and inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988, this pristine sanctuary is named after the second-highest mountain in India, Nanda Devi (7,816 m), which rises like a goddess from within its core.
The park is not merely a protected area—it is a sacred landscape. The name “Nanda Devi” means “Bliss-Giving Goddess,” and local communities revere the mountain as a manifestation of Goddess Parvati, who is known as Nanda in the Garhwal and Kumaon regions. The entire park forms a glacial basin known as the Nanda Devi Sanctuary, surrounded by a ring of peaks between 6,000 m and 7,500 m high, drained by the Rishi Ganga through the steep, almost impassable Rishi Ganga Gorge.
What makes Nanda Devi National Park truly extraordinary is its inaccessibility—the sanctuary was explored only in 1934, and the peak itself was first climbed in 1936. For decades, the area remained one of the least disturbed ecosystems in the Himalayas, preserving a wealth of rare and endangered species. Today, the park is part of the larger Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve and, together with the Valley of Flowers National Park, forms a UNESCO World Heritage Site of outstanding natural beauty.
Whether you are a dedicated trekker seeking the challenge of the Nanda Devi Interpretive Trek, a wildlife enthusiast hoping to spot the elusive snow leopard, a birder drawn to 114 recorded species, or a pilgrim wanting to connect with the goddess of the Himalayas, Nanda Devi National Park promises an experience that is both spiritually profound and wild beyond compare.

Key Information at a Glance:
History: From Forbidden Sanctuary to UNESCO Heritage
The Forbidden Sanctuary (1883–1934)
For centuries, the Nanda Devi Sanctuary remained unexplored due to its natural defences—a ring of towering peaks and the treacherous Rishi Ganga Gorge. The first recorded attempt to explore the sanctuary was in 1883 by W. W. Graham, who could only proceed up to the Rishi Ganga. Other attempts by explorers in 1870, 1926, 1927, and 1932 did not yield fruitful results.
The Breakthrough: Shipton and Tilman (1934)
In 1934, British explorers Eric Shipton and H. W. Tilman finally discovered a way through the Rishi Ganga Gorge into the sanctuary, opening the inner sanctuary for exploration. This breakthrough was described by Hugh Ruttledge as more difficult than reaching the North Pole.
The First Ascent of Nanda Devi (1936)
In 1936, a British-American expedition made the first ascent of Nanda Devi. The summit team consisted of H. W. Tilman and Noel Odell. At the time, this was the highest peak ever climbed by man (until the 1950 ascent of Annapurna).
The CIA Mission (1965–1968)
During the Cold War, the CIA, in cooperation with India’s Intelligence Bureau, planned a secret mission to install a nuclear-powered listening device on the summit of Nanda Devi to intercept missile telemetry from China. The expedition retreated due to dangerous weather, leaving the device behind. Follow-up expeditions failed to retrieve it, and in 2018, concerns were raised that the plutonium might be polluting the Ganges.
Conservation Milestones
Reopening for Eco-Tourism (2003)
After a sustained campaign by the local community reflected in the Nanda Devi Declaration of 2001, the core zone was opened for limited eco-tourism in 2003. Currently, a maximum of 500 trekkers are allowed to enter the core zone per season.

The Bhotiya Community: Guardians of the Sanctuary
The Niti Valley region on the periphery of the park is inhabited by the indigenous Bhotiya tribal community. There are 22 villages in the region.
Transhumance Lifestyle
A majority of the villages practice transhumance—they live for six months in the upper villages and move down to winter villages to avoid the extreme climate.
Cultural Traditions
The Chipko Connection
The prompt action taken by Gaura Devi and a few other village women is a milestone in the non-violent struggle of tribal communities in saving their forest wealth. The political leadership in the Niti Valley Painkhanda region was provided by Comrade Govind Singh Rawat.
Religious Beliefs: The Goddess Nanda Devi
Nanda Devi: The Bliss-Giving Goddess
Mount Nanda Devi is regarded as Goddess Parvati, who is known as Nanda in the Garhwal and Kumaon areas. The name “Nanda Devi” means “Bliss-Giving Goddess”.
The goddess has many shrines and temples dedicated to Her in the region, with one of the better-known located at Almora. The annual Nanda Devi Mela is held here in the month of September.
Nanda Devi Raj Jat – The 12-Year Pilgrimage
Nanda Devi Raj Jat is a Hindu pilgrimage stretching 280 km through the central Himalayas, held in the months of August and September every 12 years. Dating back to the 9th century AD, this pilgrimage is symbolic of seeing off Goddess Nanda to her consort Lord Shiva’s abode in the higher Himalayas after her stay at her parents’ place in the lower Himalayas.
The pilgrimage is led by a four-horned ram on its 19-day schedule from Nauti to Hemkund. The ram is said to be born every 12 years in the Chandpurpatti region of Karnaprayag.
