Pauri Garhwal district, Administrative district in Uttarakhand, India.

Pauri Garhwal district spans 5,230 square kilometers across varied elevations, containing 3,483 villages and 6 municipalities within 15 administrative blocks.

The region emerged from Katyuri kingdom control between 800-1100 AD, leading to multiple principalities until King Ajaypal consolidated the territories into Garhwal.

The district maintains Hindu religious centers, including Kandoliya Devta Temple and Ekeshwar Mahadev Temple, where local inhabitants conduct traditional ceremonies.

Transportation services include state-operated buses from Uttarakhand Roadways, with rail access through Kotdwara station and air connectivity via Jolly Grant Airport.

The Khirsu area provides views of northern Himalayan peaks and contains walking paths through dense oak and rhododendron forests.
