Bageshwar district, Administrative district in Kumaon division, India.
Bageshwar district extends across mountainous terrain between Chamoli, Pithoragarh, and Almora districts, with the Pindar and Saryu rivers flowing through its valleys.
The district formed part of the Danpur region, ruled by Katyuri kings during the 7th century before becoming a separate administrative unit in 1997.
The district population mainly speaks Kumaoni language and maintains Hindu traditions through numerous temples and religious gatherings at the confluence of rivers.
The district divides into four administrative regions: Bageshwar, Kanda, Kapkot, and Garur tehsils, with National Highway 309A connecting major settlements.
The district records a gender ratio of 1093 females per 1000 males, making it among the few Indian regions with a higher female population.
