Why Kasha
The Final Himalayan Destination — at 6,200 ft
Perched high in the quiet folds of Uttarakhand’s upper reaches, Kasha is not just a retreat—it’s the culmination of a journey. Set at 6,200 feet, it offers unobstructed views of the snow-capped peaks, crisp pine-scented air, and a sense of timelessness found only in the rarest Himalayan escapes. This is where your search for spiritual solitude, natural purity, and architectural legacy comes to rest.
📍 Location: Gateway to Glaciers
Located at the confluence of the Saryu and Gomti rivers, Kasha is a perfect base for exploring Kafni and Pindari Glaciers, as well as Char Dham routes. A springboard for both spiritual seekers and mountain lovers.
🏛 History: The Legacy of the Katyuri Kings
From the 7th to 11th century, Bageshwar was part of the Katyuri Kingdom—the first great rulers of Kumaon. Their capital, Kartikeyapur (now Baijnath), and the famed Bagnath Temple still reflect their devotion and power. The town’s name, Bhageshwar, honors Lord Shiva.
🏺 Culture & Trade
The Katyuris built in Nagara temple style and connected Kumaon to Tibet and Western India through ancient trade routes—making Bageshwar a hub of culture, commerce, and faith.
