The Churdhar Trek Package from Chandigarh takes you to Churdhar Peak at 3,647 metres — the highest summit in the outer Himalayan range. Located in the Sirmaur district of Himachal Pradesh, Churdhar is a trekking and pilgrimage destination where the sacred Chureshwar Mahadev Temple stands at the summit. Nohradhar, just 130 km from Chandigarh, is the base camp. Divya Yatra provides a complete guided package covering transport, camping, meals, trek guide, and permits.
Churdhar is the highest peak reachable in a single weekend from Chandigarh without prior acclimatization.
The trail passes through a protected 56 sq. km forest sanctuary home to Himalayan black bear, musk deer, and the rare Monal pheasant. From the summit, trekkers see a 360-degree panoramic view of Kinner Kailash, Shrikhand Mahadev, Kedarnath, and Badrinath — a reward few weekend treks can match.

The Chureshwar Mahadev Temple is an ancient Shiva shrine near the Churdhar summit at approx. 3,600 metres. It is dedicated to Shirgul Maharaj, a revered deity of the Sirmour region.

Pilgrims from across Himachal Pradesh trek here annually, making Churdhar both an adventure and a pilgrimage.
