Highlights


Overview

Nestled in the scenic Kumaon region of the Himalayas, the Pindari Glacier trek is a favorite among both novice and seasoned trekkers. Located within the Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve, this glacier is the origin point of the Pindar River, which eventually merges with the Alaknanda River at Karanprayag. The trail winds through the southern expanse of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary, offering trekkers mesmerizing views of towering Himalayan giants like Maiktoli (6,803 m) and Panwali Dwar (6,683 m). Along the route, the trail diverges at Dwali â?? with one path leading to the Pindari Glacier and the other heading towards the Kafni Glacier.

What makes this trek truly special is its accessibility and the sheer variety of landscapes it offers. From vibrant rhododendron forests and wide alpine meadows to serene valleys and glacial streams, every segment of the trail is a visual treat. The trek culminates at the Pindari Glacierâ??s zero point, standing tall at approximately 3,660 meters, where panoramic views of the mighty Nanda Devi and surrounding peaks leave a lasting impression. Ideal for those seeking adventure amidst pristine wilderness, this trek promises an unforgettable Himalayan experience.

How To Reach

Options to Reach Kathgodam Railway Station (Haldwani)

Take an overnight train to Kathgodam railway station (290 km 6-7 hours) which is well connected to Delhi, Kolkata, Dehradun and Lucknow.


Take an overnight bus to Haldwani Bus Stand, Delhi Anand Vihar ISBT provides bus services to Haldwani (don't go to Delhi Kashmere Gate ISBT) and then take a cab to the pickup point, which is 6 km away and takes 15 minutes.


( We always recommend going for the govt. Buses over the private ones outside the bus station as based on the experience we have found that there are very high chances of delay involved with private buses. Also, govt. Buses are always more reliable. Whichever bus you choose, just make sure to reach Kathgodam at least by 05:30 am. )


Take flight to Pantnagar airport, about 27 km, is the nearest airport with direct flights to Delhi, if coming by flight then come one day early.


( If you prefer to travel from Kathgodam to our base camp independently, you can either take a government bus or book a private cab. Your trek coordinator will provide guidance on how to arrange for the bus or cab booking. )

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.

I had the most wonderful experience trekking through the ranges of Chandrashila with Trekmunk. The small moments of achievement were phenomenal. Chandrashila is the most astonishing peak that I've ever trekked through; I've never been so fascinated. I think I am going to go for another trek with Trekmunk soon enough! The kind of hospitality that is provided to us is worth appreciating. I made many new friends and have enjoyed each and every day of this trek to its fullest.

Meghalaya Backpacking
Jayati Bist

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!

Kedartal Trek
Mazhar Dohadwala

We were a group of 12 friends and booked a trek to Kedartal with Trekmunk, it was an amazing experience..even though it was our first trek to the Himalayas and Kedartal being a difficult terrain trek we were guided excellently by the Trekmunk team. They served us nutritious food, took complete care of our safety and health and gave us the right advice to overcome AMS. Eagerly awaiting our next trek with them.
