Abstract

Garhwal Himalaya has some of the sublimest and most beautiful mountain scenery, dedicated to Hindu Gods. Uncommercialised pure-nature can be a good source of tourism promotion, provided recreational planning processes are selected with care, expertise and with respect to physical environment. Since it is Hindu's pilgrim-zone, age-old and timeless, research-based programmes on the Grand Yatra route shall help fixing up priorities, typology and class of tourism to promote. Adhoc, haphazard or impulsive tourism structurings may lead to eco-catostrophies. Knowledge of mountain eco-systems shall help taking right direction to Environment-Oriented Planning. This paper spells out some of the dangers that this land of fragile beauty has have to face should future be ignored for immediate economic gains; also suggests approach and line of action.
