Best Summer Trek in Uttarakhand – Vast Alpine Meadows
The Ali Bedni Bugyal Trek takes you to the most beautiful high-altitude meadows in the Nanda Devi region. Unlike other treks, Ali and Bedni Bugyal offer vast rolling grasslands at 11,500 ft, surrounded by majestic peaks like Mt. Trishul, Mt. Nanda Ghunti, and Mt. Chaukhamba. The trail passes through dense oak and rhododendron forests, making it perfect for nature lovers seeking a classic Himalayan meadow trek.
The trek begins from Wan village, nestled on verdant mountain slopes. You'll walk past traditional huts, terraced fields, and grazing livestock. Crossing the Neel‑Ganga river, the path climbs through chir pine and rhododendron forests, accompanied by flowing streams and birdsong.
At an elevation of around 11,686 feet, Ali Bedni Bugyal is a stunning alpine meadow framed by panoramic Himalayan peaks, including Chaukamba, Trishul, and Nanda Ghunti. The trek offers a perfect blend of forest trails, open grasslands, and breathtaking mountain vistas – ideal for photography and nature lovers.
Your journey begins with a scenic drive from Dehradun to Wan Village. The route passes through Rishikesh, Karnaprayag, and Lohajung, offering mesmerizing views of river valleys, terraced fields, and mountain landscapes.
You will drive alongside the Alaknanda and Pindar rivers, crossing quaint Himalayan towns. The final stretch is a winding mountain road that gradually takes you closer to Wan. On arrival, check into a guesthouse/campsite, enjoy a hot meal, and prepare for the trekking adventure ahead.

Wake up to the fresh mountain air and begin your trek towards Ali and Bedni Bugyal, two of the most beautiful alpine meadows in India. The trail gradually ascends, opening up from dense oak and rhododendron forests into vast stretches of rolling green pastures.
As you climb higher, the majestic Himalayan peaks begin to reveal themselves, with Mt. Trishul and Nanda Ghunti standing tall on the horizon. Bedni Bugyal is also home to the sacred Bedni Kund, a small high-altitude lake that holds religious significance.

Begin your descent from Ali Bedni Bugyal after breakfast. The trek takes you back through the vast alpine meadows, where you can take a final glimpse of the stunning Himalayan peaks before entering the dense oak and rhododendron forests.
The trail is mostly downhill, and though easier than the ascent, it requires steady footing on the steep sections. On reaching Wan Village by afternoon, check into a guesthouse or campsite.
