And just as importantly, what there isn't.
No pool, no spa, no bar. Just the highest Shiva temple in the world, a walk away.

Round trip · 6–8 hrs
From the trailhead, it's about 3.5km, climbing roughly 1,000m, to Tungnath — the highest Shiva temple in the world. Another push takes you up to Chandrashila, just over 4,000m, for a 360° Himalayan view.
We offer this as a guided 3-day package: arrival and acclimatisation, the trek day itself, and a day to rest before heading back down.
Day 1 — Arrival & acclimatisation
Settle in, adjust to the altitude, short local walk. No trekking on day one.
Day 2 — The trek
Tungnath to Chandrashila and back — the full 10km round trip, 6–8 hours on foot.
Day 3 — Rest & departure
A slow morning, no plans, then head back down whenever you're ready.

Chandrashila
Tungnath is a 30–40 minute drive from here, then a 3.5 km climb — we'll get you to the trailhead early. From there, climb roughly 1,000m to Tungnath — the highest Shiva temple in the world — then push on to Chandrashila summit, just over 4,000m, for a 360° Himalayan view.
The route is open roughly April/May through October/November; heavy snow closes it in winter.
A deeper stay
For guests who want more than a trek, our 5-day experiential immersion is a customized plan built around actually living alongside the valley, not just visiting it. Depending on what you're interested in, it can include village walks, the Tungnath trek, time with children at the local school, cooking and sharing meals with local families, kitchen-garden time, Aipan art with Kajal, and joining local plantation or cleanliness drives. Because every plan is shaped around you, pricing isn't fixed — message us and we'll work out the plan and the price together. A portion of what you pay — typically 5–10% — goes directly toward supporting local school children and elderly residents in the area.

When an artist is on the property, you can sit with Kajal and paint your own piece — Aipan, the traditional Kumaoni art made with red clay (geru) and rice paste, the same craft woven through everything here. This isn't a demonstration you watch from the side. You'll actually paint. (It's also one of the things woven into the 5-day experiential package above, if you'd rather have it as part of a longer stay.)
The property sits at the edge of Kedarnath Wildlife Sanctuary — nearly 1,000 square kilometres of oak and rhododendron forest climbing into alpine meadow. We'll be straight with you about what you're likely to see: gray langurs, macaques, and a good range of birdlife on an ordinary walk. The sanctuary is also home to the Himalayan monal — Uttarakhand's state bird — and, more elusively, musk deer and even snow leopard, though spotting those really takes a dedicated guided trip into the sanctuary's remote interior, not a casual walk. We'd rather tell you that upfront than oversell a wildlife show we can't promise.
Not everyone who comes here is here to trek. Some guests just want the quiet, the view, and nowhere to be — and that's a completely valid way to spend your time with us. No itinerary required.
