Darma valley is a Himalayan valley situated in the Pithoragarh District of Uttarakhand state of India. This valley is located in the eastern part of Uttarakhand at Kumaon division. The Darma or Darma Ganga valley is formed by the Darma River. The valley is situated between two other valleys—Kuthi Yangti valley to the east and Lassar Yangti valley in the west. The Darma valley links with the Lassar valley by Gangachal Dhura and connects with Kuthi valley by Sinla pass and Nama pass. Darma valley starts near Dawe village on the Sino-Indian border and flows southwards. At Tidang it joins the Lassar Yangti and is called Dhauli Ganga until it confluences in the river Kali at Tawaghat. Darma valley has rich flora including orchids. A rivulet called Nyuli Yangti that drains Panchachuli east glaciers flows into Dhauli Ganga at Dugtu-Dantu villages. Mandab river joins Dhauli at Sela. The Darma valley is inhabited by some 12 villages with population less than 1000. The villagers have been livestock rearers and traders, cultivating land in the valley with common buckwheat (''Fagopyrum esculentum'') and potatoes. After the migration of the 1970s, cultivated land has decreased to 25% of former size, allowing biodiversity to return to Darma Valley. ==Major peaks== * Panchchuli massif, from * Om Parvat, * Yungtangto, 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Darma Valley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
