Uttar Pradesh has a large stretch of the Himalayan
ranges along its northern edge-the Kumaon and Garhwal Hills -a Kaleidoscope of
green forested hills,
tall ranges with their dusting of snow, meadows carpeted with flowers, ancient
glaciers and clear lakes. These hills, noted for their scenic hill stations and
various places of pilgrimage are also ideal for a host of adventure activities
like trekking, mountaineering, rock climbing, white water rafting and even
skiing.
