Top Things to do in Bageshwar

"Uttarakhand's Kashi" Bageshwar Tourism Bageshwar, tucked inconspicously in the Himalayan range, becomes one of the most underrated, and hence by default, one of the most untouched destination by humans. If it is colorful fairs and festivals that attract you, or if hiking and trekking calls you out of your comfort zone, you won't be dissapointed. Bageshwar isn't a place that you want to sit back and relax in, there's adventure and life pumping through the every vein of this tiny town, which itself meets where the swift streams of Sarayu, Gomti and the latent Bhagirathi meet. While in Bageshwar itself, there are very limited options available to visit, mainly because of the overlapping of districts and the restrictive terrain, if you are ready to venture around Bageshwar, you have options aplenty to visit and make your trip worthwhile. You may not wish to visit Bageshwar on its own, but coupled with the amazing and absolutely explorable options around the city, you can make it a sure shot offbeat road trip and challenge yourself to an out of the box vacation.

Limited food joints available. For Whom Bageshwar is a destination which will quench your wanderlust as it is a trekker's paradise as it serves as the entry point to some of the most heart throbbing trekking routes in the region like Sunderdunga Glaciers, Kafni and Pindari Glacier. It is a place for the adventure enthusiasts as it offers various options for camping, mountaineering and sightseeing. It also attracts tourists from all over the country who visit this place to enjoy the natural beauty and serenity.

One Day Itinerary A single or a two day trip for that matter, to Bageshwar, is impossible unless you want to miss out on the trek. The Pandusthal trek is the only worthwhile activity to carry out here, and that itself will cut you back by 3-4 days. You can plan a week long trip if you wish to visit the temples in and around the city, coupled with the trek. Exploring Bageshwar is a very subjective issue, as it is an enticing opportunity if you like being in the secluded lap of nature, or like exploring a city with the looming past of divine interventions. Put Bageshwar on your list, if temple legends and nature sound appealing to you. Following a three day trek to Pandusthal would be a trip to the Chandika Temple and the Gauri Udiyar. For the next day, head to the lush green lap of Kanda and whip out that camera for some nature photography. Let Kanda sink in for another night, and head out to Vijaypur to capture the Himalayan peak in its glory, all round the year. Round off the trip by buying some traditional non-perishable Kumaoni treats for the sweet tooth and head back home.

Restaurants and Local Food in Bageshwar Bageshwar is a really small town, warm and welcoming, but not as thoroughly developed as its Kumaoni counterparts to offer you with fancy dining out options. But there is never a dearth of local eateries popping out of every nook and cranny of the city offering you with some delectable local cuisine of aloo-puri (potato gravy and fried Indian bread) and sweets like Balmithai. You may want to consider packing up some dry foodstuff for longer journeys, since packaged preserved food here is a rare sight due to the logistical cost of making the same available on the terrain.
