'''Hathi Parbat''', ({{lang-hi|हाथी पर्बत}}) also known as '''Elephant Peak''', is a mountain in the [[Garhwal Himalaya]]s in [[India]]. It is located in the [[Chamoli district]] of [[Uttarakhand]] state. Its summit has an elevation of {{convert|6727|m|ft|0}}.<br />
<br />
==Legend==<br />
Two huge rocks on a spur of Hathi Parbat are described as a crow ([[Kakabhushundi]]) and an eagle ([[Garuda]]). It is believed that the crow is animatedly conversing with eagle on the affairs of the universe as it's described in [[Ramayana]]. Another version has it that a learned [[Brahmin]] of [[Ayodhya]] once incurred the wrath of the sage Lomasa who lived here and was changed into the form of crow by the sage.{{cn|date=January 2021}}<br />
<br />
==Access==<br />
Hathi Parbat can be reached from [[Vishnuprayag]] or [[Ghangaria]], which is close to [[Valley of Flowers]].<ref>http://www.india9.com/i9show/Hathi-Parbat-82306.htm</ref> The approach from Ghangaria is a little easier but longer. From [[Govindghat]], there is an 18&nbsp;km bridle path which runs through the Bhyundar valley and Bhyundar village up to Ghanghariya. Kakbhushundi Tal & Guari Parvat Lies in the vicinity of Hathi Parbat. Nearby places are Bhyundar, Jelam, Shyama and Juma. The [[Dhauliganga River]] flows nearby.{{cn|date=January 2021}}<br />
