Hey everyone today iam sharing with you guys my hike journey to a peak of height 12000feet aprox known as churdhar.
Story of churdhar:
Shirgul Devta and Bijjat Maharaj are centuries old deit ies of Himachal situated at Churdhar in Sirmaur. Both deities had a centuries old fight but now after 1, 500 year, both the deities are ready to end their fight and they will meet each other very soon at a joint jagaran in the region. People of two panchayats are associated with these deities. Chadhna and Devmanal panchayats are the two panchayats where people couldn’t organise fairs and festivals together due to the fight between their deities. But, now they will come together for a jagaran, local people informed. They stated that once both the deities shared a great relationship with each other which was known as shata-pasha. But due to a fight they did not talk to each other or not even met in local fairs. But now the deities have ordered the local people to stop the fight and organise a deity fair where they will meet each other. It was decided in a joint meeting of both the panchayats, where panchayat pradhan and other members of the villages were present.
It was a good sunny day to start with the hike it was a 9km journey on foot to the top.we started the hike at 8 in the morning fun fact was that we didn't knew the way to the top we were just climbing towards the top.
It was a easy hike in starting but as we came near to the top it started to become tough for us to hike.But we were enjoying the journey so didn't felt tired.
It was just a fine day to hike no fogg or mist was there.It was a site to remember when we reached near to the top the plain mountain top covered with grass.The horses were gazing it looked like a movie scene up there
There was a small pond also there we sat by it and ate lunch there beside a rock from their we could see the top.
The top was looking very close from there it was looking like a 15 min hike from there but it was not like that the last hike was the hardest to reach as due to fall in oxygen levels we were getting tired.
It took us more than an hour to reach the top the view from the top was outstanding clouds were literally below us we were on top of all the mountains in the sorrunding.
After spending some time at the top we came back to a rest stop their we ate some snacks and started walking down towards our home.
