Tungnath at 3,680 metres is the highest Shiva temple in the world and one of the sacred Panch Kedar sites. According to mythology, Lord Shiva's arms appeared here when the Pandavas sought his blessings after the Kurukshetra war — making it one of the most spiritually significant Himalayan destinations in India.
Top activities at Tungnath:
