The trail till Tungnath is rocky and well paved and further from Tungnath, there is no rocky trail. You can also notice a change in the landscape due to an increase in the altitude. The tree line ends at Tungnath and after that, you may find only bushes.

The Tungnath Temple is one of the Panch Kedar temples and is considered the highest temple of Lord Shiva in the world.
