Haathi Parvat, Mountain summit in Joshimath Tehsil, India
Haathi Parvat rises to an elevation of 6,727 meters in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand, standing as a prominent peak in the Chamoli district.
The first documented climb of Haathi Parvat occurred on June 6, 1963, when an Indian expedition team of eight members reached the summit successfully.
Local tales speak of two rocks on the mountain representing a crow and an eagle, which according to Hindu mythology discuss matters of the universe.
Travelers can reach Haathi Parvat through an 18-kilometer path from Govindghat that passes through Bhyundar Valley and leads to the base at Ghangaria.
The mountain experienced a substantial landslide in May 2017 that blocked the national highway and affected the progress of 14,000 Char Dham pilgrims.
