About the place

The feeling of Purnagiri Temple

Purnagiri Temple rises in the hills beyond Tanakpur and draws devotees toward one of Kumaon's most powerful pilgrimage landscapes. The approach combines a mountain road with a final walking section, while the temple's high setting opens across the Kali valley and the India-Nepal borderlands.
