Roopkund The Mysterious Trek in India

• There are very few trails in our country that are
  as safe for beginners as the Roopkund trail is
  and yet climb to such a high altitude.
• This trek is open in two part before monsoons in
  May-June or after the monsoons in August
  September. Now if you do the trek in May/June,
  the bugyals will be greener than ever and the
  lake will be thawed which means you get to see
  the skeletons. and If you do the trek in
  September, the bugyals will be on the browner
  side, still beautiful, but towards the end of the
  month, there will be snow lots of it. And in
  all probability, the lake will be frozen. So
  chose your pick skeletons or snow!

Important Information About Roopkund Trek

• The trail is wide and well-laid-out. There is no
  chance to get lost or lose your way. Frankly, you
  dont even need to take a guide on this trek if
  you follow the right direction. A guide comes in
  handy only when you have to traverse the snow
  patches on your final climb to Roopkund. During
  the trek you will visit Lohajung, Didna, Ali
  Bugyal, Bedni Bugyal, Ghora Lotani, Bhagubasha
  and Wan.
• The journey begins from Kathgodam, a small town
  in the Nainital district of Uttarakhand. It is
  accessible by railways and roadways, which are
  the only two ways to arrive in this beautiful
  destination. The closest airport is the Pantnagar
  Airport, which is 71 kms away you will have to
  rely on road transport or rails to arrive in
  Kathgodam.
• The trek starts from lohajung. The village
  Loharjung has a striking view of the basins of
  Nilganga. It offers a placid and private abode to
  travellers, most of who pass through here to go
  across to the other charms of the area. Few
  restaurants are available here and very few
  lodging facilities are present. This is where you
  can obtain permits for your trek and enjoy amidst
  the serenity of nature.

Important Information About Roopkund Trek

• Bedni Bugyal and Ali Bugyal are located at a
  majestic height of 3400 m, Ali Bugyal lies atop a
  mountain while treading through thick vegetation
  of oak and birch trees. With beautiful grassy
  terrains and green stretches, Ali Bugyal offers
  an enchanting view with misty winds and colourful
  treats. Horses and cattle commonly graze the area
  while a view of the Trishul Peak and Mrigthuni
  Peak forms an amazing backdrop to this
  mesmerizing location.
• The trek from Bedni Bugyal to Ghora Lautani with
  an altitude change of 2000ft. This will be a good
  idea for better acclimatization else you can
  proceed towards Bhaguabhasa. Ghora Lautani is a
  secluded campsite on a slope and all surrounded
  by high peaks.
• A noticeably isolated location is what stands at
  Bhagwabasa with stone blocks on all sides of the
  trail. An array of abandoned stone huts ranging
  in size can be seen here and were rented out to
  trekkers in the past. These huts now stand
  destroyed but yet offer a great view amidst the
  misty backdrops with abundant cloud cover. The
  peaks of Nanda Ghunti, Trishul and Kali Dak can
  be clearly sighted from here.
