ALI BEDNI BUGYAL TREK

Explore the Untouched Majesty of the Himalayas

An Iconic Journey through the Verdant High-Altitude Meadows of Uttarakhand.

That gracefully combines natural grandeur with cultural richness. Set in the heart of Uttarakhand’s Chamoli district, this trek unveils a seamless blend of lush forest trails, alpine meadows and commanding views of the snow-clad Himalayan peaks — most notably Mt. Trishul and Mt. Nanda Ghunti.

Rising to an elevation of approximately 11,500 feet (3,505 meters), the trek is a easy to moderate grade adventure suitable for well-prepared beginners and experienced trekkers alike. Beginning from the quaint hamlet of Lohajung, the trail meanders through ancient oak and rhododendron forests, traditional Garhwali villages and finally opens into the vast velvet-like meadows of Ali Bugyal and Bedni Bugyal — among the highest and most scenic grasslands in India.

Highlights of the Trek

Witness Asia’s highest and largest high-altitude meadows.
Sweeping views of 7,000+ meter peaks
Camping on pristine meadows under a star-lit sky
Cultural immersion in traditional Garhwali villages
Ideal acclimatization trek for future high-altitude expeditions
With its unspoiled landscapes, rhythmic trails, and deeply calming ambiance, the Ali Bedni Bugyal Trek is more than a physical journey — it is a soulful retreat into the pristine heart of the Indian Himalayas.
