The Valley of Flowers is an outstandingly beautiful high-altitude Himalayan valley that has been acknowledged as such by renowned mountaineers and botanists in literature for over a century and in Hindu mythology for much longer. Its 'gentle' landscape, breath-taxingly beautiful meadows of alpine flowers and ease of access complement the rugged, mountain wilderness for which the inner basin of Nanda Devi National Park is renowned.

While on an expedition to Mt. Kamet, Frank S. Smith, an English mountain explorer and botanist, discovered the Valley Of Flowers. Bustling with beautiful, lively and vibrant colours, this park spread over an area of 87.5 km has the largest collection of wild flower species. Hidden from the probing eyes of civilization, this valley had been known to the inhabitants as the Bhiyundar valley. Legend associates this valley with area from where Hanumanji of Ramayana collected 'Sanjeevani' herb to revive Lakshman.
