If you are into trekking in India, the Roopkund trek is a must do! It’s got everything going for it. Deep virgin forests, gurgling brooks, breath-taking campsites, miles of undulating meadows, snow and ice, feeling of
thrill when you stand in front of Skeleton Lake and the taste of a great adventure as you climb from 7,000 ft
to 16,000 ft in 5 days. Roopkund, perhaps the most popular trek in India, is almost picture perfect. The
Roopkund trail climbs out of splendid dark forests suddenly bursting into Ali and Bedni Bugyal, arguably
India’s most beautiful high altitude meadows. Out of the meadows the trail quickly gets into terrific alpine
stretches. Climbing on snow to the Roopkund lake is a heart pounding thrill. The beautiful Mt. Trishul, Mt.
Nandagunti, looms over the getting closer as you climb higher, when at a ridge above Roopkund, only air
separates the trekker from them and Mt. Trishul. This trek connection with so many mythological stories,
which is also another positive side of this trek. Even the footprint of these stories are founded here till now.
So that why, it fascinates everyone and bucket list of every trekker.
