Munsiyari

Munsiyari being very close to the Panchchuli Range, one can see the peaks very clearly and close to proximity. There is a point Khalia Top from Ratapani. It is higher than Munsiyari and one can see full Range very very clearly.

 This is Messar Kund near Munsiyari where there is a meadow and small Kund. 
Munsyari is the name of a town and a tehsil in the Pithoragarh District. It lies at an altitude of 7200 feet. There are three ways to come here but can be blocked during rains.
This is TRH Munsiyari.
This is the Panchchuli Peak II towering at 23000 feet. This can be seen clearly from anywhere in Munsiyari. This is a base point for trekkers to go to Milam Glacier.
These are the small villages on the opposite mountin to Munsiyari as seen from Munsiyari. As you can see the town goes till higher than Munsiyari. People have to walk a lot here.
