It is the largest hill town in the Kumaon Division, and the district itself is named after this town. According to local tradition, during the rule of the Chand Rajas of Kumaon, a man named Piru, also called Prithvi Gosain, built a fort here named Prithvigarh, which later became Pithoragarh. The town’s culture is celebrated through the Pithoragarh Mahotsav, where local music and dance in the Kumaoni language are highlighted. Another unique cultural event is the Kandali Festival, held once every twelve years between August and October in the Chaudans region.
