Nag Tibba(Serpent's peak) is situated in Tehri Garhwal in Uttarakhand, at an altitude of 9,915 feet. It is also known as the abode of Nag Devtas, Tibba is a local word for hill or peak. Nag Tibba range is part of three major ranges of lesser Himalayas which includes Pir Panjal Range, Dhauladhar range which was a part of Great Himalayas. Villagers strongly believe in the Nag Devta and come regularly to offer prayers to him for the safety of their animals.
Nag Tibba is an easy trek but offers some spectacular views of the entire Bandarpooch (6316m) range towards Yamunotri side, Swargarohini (6252m), Kedarnath peak in the north, Doon valley, Srikanth, Gangotri group of peaks and Chanabang.
