All in all, if secluded landscapes at high altitudes attract you and if you are thrilled by the idea of gloomy weathers and panoramic, birds-eye views of stunning valleys and sceneries, the Ali Bedni Bugyal trek has got to be your goto comfort vacation destination; it's a different vibe, mood, and chill-space altogether.

hours to reach Wan from Rishikesh; you will be covering a distance of 259kms in the mean time.

trekking from Wan to Ghairoli Paataal, this day. Ghairoli Paatal is located at an altitude of 10.200 ft and
offers a spectacular and astonishing view of the alluring hill steps of the Kulling Valley from the top. The
climb is gradual and very fascinating. On your way, you will have to cross Latu Devta temple, Neelganga river after which you will sneak into thick wild forests where you can look out for interesting, rare species of flora and fauna and have a great time, discovering, observing and
appreciating nature. Up next, you will find the Wan River emerging out of nowhere, spilling and surging
to desperately merge with the Bedni Ganga. A littlebeyond the village is a patch of clearing where most trekkers camp for the night,  After covering a distance of approximately 11 km, you will reach the campsite in about 5 hours or so. Upon reaching the camps, enjoy the

exquisite views of undulating meadows of all time. The sheer pleasure of being able to witness such
breathtaking scenery cannot be put to words, really. You will be reaching the top of the ridge today
which lies at an altitude of 11,185 ft. A moderately easy trek through dense oak forests will lead you to
the opening of the grand, limitless-appearing, vast meadows. These meadows appear different in
different seasons and switch from snow-smeared landscapes to lush green landscapes from one season
to another. A steady and swift trek through the forests will lead you to Ali Bugyal in not more than 6
hours. After trekking for almost 8.5 km, you will reach the top of the ridge, where you can stroll for a

first reach the Neel Ganga which lies close by. The trail from Gehroli Patal to Neel Ganga is fascinating
and the trek is easy to moderate with not so steep descends which can be covered in 1to 2 hours at
most. It is also one of the most beautiful trails of all time. As you begin to descend, you get a bird’s eye
view of the entire valley and it is truly, an absolutely magical experience. Upon reaching the river, wash
off the dirt and exhaustion of the trek and spend some time by the fresh, crystal clear, cold water of the
river. From here, you are to reach the bottom of the Wan village. There are many routes that can be
taken to trek down. The descend is steep, interesting and thrilling, altogether. This will be the last
stretch to be covered on foot. Make the most out of the opportunity and enjoy the wholesome trek to
the bottom of the village of Wan. Upon reaching Wan, you will be driven to Lohajung village. The drive
from Wan to Lohajung is pleasant and lasts a good 45 minutes covering a distance of 10 km

How To Reach

Rishikesh is a popular pilgrim city in Uttarakhand which can be easily reached via various modes of transport. It is best to use public transport to reach the city. You can board a flight to Dehradun and then take a bus or taxi to reach Rishikesh or you can board a flight to the capital of the country and then board a train to reach the city. These are the two most common modes of reaching Rishikesh, although there are many other ways of reaching the city from different states. A quick Google search should be sufficient to help you figure out most things. Since you will leave early from Rishikesh on the first day of your excursion, it is ideal to arrive in Rishikesh, a day prior to the first day of excursion. There are plenty of tourist spots that can be explored and visited in Rishikesh if you reach there well in advance. If you have sufficient time river rafting, visiting the Ganga Aarti Sthal and visiting the Laxman Jhula are some activities that you can look forward to.

Our 7 days trip to Meghalaya was a truly memorable experience. Thank you Trekmunk for arranging such an adventurous backpacking trip and a special thanks to Mohit Goswami our trip leader for giving us an experience of what true travelling is. From hitchhiking to traversing the unknown places to eating delicious Momo's to climbing 3000 steps, we did it all in those 7 days which came to end so quickly and none of us wanted to go back home. Such an experience where you just pick up your rucksacks and walk down the roads of a traveller could have been only possible because of Trekmunk!

I had an amazing trek with Trekmunk to Sandakphu November and December 2019. From the first moment of inquiry about the trek and all my questions were answered clearly and on time thanks to Dheeraj who managed to facilitate the trek quite well with his communication. Our guide Arpan was very experienced, calm, patient and very helpful to each trekker's needs in the group. He facilitated to find and hire a porter for me once I needed one although we were in the middle of the trail. He also arranged emergency transportation when I had to cut the trek and go back home for an urgent matter. I really enjoyed their service and I would like to repeat the same trek or try other treks with them again.

No words for the bike trip from Srinagar to Leh. One should experience it to feel it and all this because of the management of Trekmunk especially Mohit and Harshit whose efforts even made the hardest of the ride exciting adventurous and above all safe. Although some hindrances which are quite common like bike issues and medical problems arose with our co-riders, I liked the way these two guys handled it dexterously. I went with one of my best friends and came with a lot more and the trip turned out to be memories that can be cherished for a lifetime. Thanks, Team Trekmunk for giving me a wonderful experience. I can't wait to go on my next adventure with them.
