The charming and picturesque Chaukori is situated in the heart of Pithoragarh district 16 km from Vijaypur or 46 km from Bageshwar. Literally cupped in a bowl by the surrounding majestic Himalayas. Chaukori is famous not only for the magnificent view it offers from Nanda Devi to Panchchuli and beyond but quite unrivalled for its  breathtakingly beautiful sunset. The spectacular sunrise and sunset tinge the awe-inspiring pristine peaks, making Chaukori an idyllic for the tea shrubs grown by enterprising locales and the fields of ripening corn, fruits orchards and pine, oak and rhododendron trees excude and enchanting charm.
