The route to the Valley is between those mountains. The profile of those mountains look familiar ? Yes… the Valley of Flowers is in South India.

We started trekking towards the Valley of Flowers early in the morning. We literally were the first to enter the park reserve that morning. Anyway, inside the park, we took quite a few photographs, and there’s not much of a story to tell. The photographs talk for themselves.
