Overview
Harsil, a serene village and tourist hill station in Uttarkashi district, Uttarakhand, is nestled on the banks of the Bhagirathi River, en route to the sacred Gangotri. Elevated at 9,005 feet (2,745 meters) above sea level, it offers a tranquil escape with stunning natural beauty.
The name “Harsil” has its roots in local legend. According to folklore, the Bhagirathi and Jalandhari rivers once quarreled over their significance. To mediate, Lord Vishnu, known as Hari, transformed himself into a great stone or “shila” and absorbed their discord. Thus, the rivers’ tumultuous flow calmed, and the area was named Hari-shila, later shortened to Harsil.
Located 78 kilometers from Uttarkashi and 30 kilometers from the expansive Gangotri National Park, which spans 1,553 square kilometers, Harsil is renowned for its pristine environment and apple orchards. The area’s natural splendor, combined with its role as a gateway to Gangotri, makes Harsil a charming and peaceful destination. Visitors are drawn to its lush landscapes, tranquil riversides, and the picturesque backdrop of the Himalayan foothills.
