Tour Details
Considered amongst the finest high altitude grasslands in the Garhwal mountains (altitude 3354 metres) famous for wild high altitude flowers and herbs during the spring thaw, and offering a splendid view of the Greater Himalayan range. Arguably one of the most romantic spots in the Himalayas – virgin meadows greet the visitor, for as far as the eye can see, scenic mountains, deep valleys and lofty mountains present the most memorable sunsets and sunrises, and above alll, the enormous western flank of Trishul and the Nanda Ghunti overlooks this heaven on earth! One of the larger Bugyals (High altitude meadows) in Uttaranchal, The Vaitarni lake (also called the Bedni Kund) is located in this region, and is famous for the rare Brahma Kamal flower, and is also a major way-station on the Nanda Raj Jaat Yatra, a ritual procession held every 12 years. Bedni Bugyal also serves as a stopover for the famed Roopkund trek!
