Nanda Devi Trek
This trek is managed by the local community and starts from the village of Lata and culminates at Suraithota. The visitors camp at Kanook and Lata Kharak while at the village of Tolma homestay arrangements are made. The highest elevation gained during the trek is 4,200 m. Since the landscape is almost vertical, chances of AMS remains high. The trekkers camp midway at Camp Kanook, between Lata village and Lata Kharak, to acclimatise before attempting the high altitude. The Nanda Devi Trek is planned as an all immersive experience for travellers.
Latu Ka Lodge
The lodge is an ideal base for trekkers planning to explore the bio-culture diversity and mesmerising landscape and wilderness of the park. The tariff includes dinner and breakfast. There is an equipment store for hiring trekking equipment.
The closest cities are Joshimath northwest of the park and Munsyari southeast of the park.
