Civil Administration, Kishtwar in coordination with Indian Army, organised Trekking in Chingam, District Kishtwar.
Such events will inculcate and further promote trekking and mountaineering spirit among locals and also identify and build upon the avenues of tourism in District Kishtwar.
Kishtwar trekking started from Pathri Morh, Watsar and culminated at Sinthan Maidan through mesmerising natural beauty of Chingam Valley. At the beginning, Indian Army imparted awareness on expedients for jungle survival through a demonstration for the youth.
Forest department created awareness about Flora and Fauna of mountains of Kishtwar. After the mesmerising trek of 10 km through Chingam valley, the event culminated with heart warming demonstration of Gujjar Bakrawals musical and rich culture and traditions at Sinthan Maidan.
Nearly 100 locals participated in the Trekking to include all segments of society. The spirit displayed by the trekkers was indeed phenomenal. The zeal and rigour of the local youth was praiseworthy right from participation till the culmination of the trek.
The locals at the Trekking event hugely appreciated the efforts of the Civil Administration and Indian Army for conducting such an event which brings to the fore the sense of affection for nature and foster tourism in the region.
