Nag Tibba

About

Nag Tibba ("Serpent's Peak"), at an elevation of 3,022 metres (9, 915 ft), is the highest peak in the Lesser Himalayan region of the Garhwal Division of Uttarakhand state in India and of the Bugyals region. It lends its name to the Nag Tibba Range, itself the next-northerly of the five folds of the Himalayas. It is situated 16 km (9.9 mi) away from Landour cantonment, 57 kilometres (35 mi) from Mussoorie and 148 kilometres (92 mi) from New Tehri in the Tehri Garhwal district of Uttarakhand. The Nag Tibba Range is one of the three principal ranges of the Lesser Himalayas, along with the Dhauladhar and the Pir Panjal, which branch off from the Great Himalayas.
