It is one of the best weekend treks that can be commenced by the beginners as well as experienced trekkers. A small temple is enshrined atop the hill, from where one can have a panoramic view of the entire Banderpunch ranges of the Great Indian Himalayas towards the Yamunotri side.
Nagtibba is a perfect place for camping during spring and summers and one of the most suitable trek for winters, when most of the treks are closed due to heavy snow. Due to its easy access it is one of most popular weekend treks in India.

Detailed Itinerary
Day 1: Haridwar to Pantwari village and trek to Base Camp
There will be pick up from Haridwar railway station around 7 early in the morning, We
will cover 4,640 ft to village Panthwari 4-hour uphill drive. The road passes through a
Mussoorie-the queen of hills, to Kempty Falls, and with the Yamuna River trailing our
side on to Nainbagh from where we turn on the Nag TIbba road, reaching Panthwari at
around noon. We will take a halt in between for light breakfast. We will be trekking for
30 minutes on a rocky trail in our way. We will come across a cluster of thatched-roofed
huts- a small village on cliffs, lined with terrace farmlands. During the harvest
seasons, you will find these stretches in a wave of different shades in green and
yellow. We will be experiencing clouds like smoke rising from beneath in the gulf just
in front of the campsite ledge.
Meal - Dinner
Day 2: Base Camp to Nag Tibba top and back
We will not rush today as we will be having plenty of time to reach Nag Tibba top. We
will off to Nag Tibba top after a healthy breakfast. Make sure it will become a little
challenging to locate the trail because snow covered the path in winters. For the
trekking of 20-30 minutes, we will happen to reach two open patches of land, clearings
by the forest fringes. The trek continues from here into the forest on a steep incline,
likely to be submerged in the snow in the winter. This part of the trek really raises
the bar for a challenge and makes for a swashbuckling summit experience. Reach Nag Tibba
top, and witness the stunning views of the Himalayan peaks like Swarga-Rohini, Bandar
Poonch, Kedarnath, and Gangotri. Get served with mouth-watering lunch at the camp.
