Ali and Bedni “Bugyal” two adjacent alpine meadows form one of the
most eye soothing and peak view rich trail, Ali Bugyal and Bedni
Bugyal trek. Literally you will be spending almost 2 days on the vast
expanse of the alpine meadows , locally called Bugyal. Be it summer,
autumn, winters or spring you can walk on this rolling stretch of
meadow, sometimes shades of green, yellow, or perhaps golden
brown. During the peak winter months expect a white blanket
covered with snow. Here are some photographic evidences.
Ali Bedni Bugyal Trek Quick Facts:
The valley in which Wan village is situated is know for its exquisite beauty
and untouched grennery and last village at the end of a motorable road
and is the base camp to begin the Ali Bedni Bugyal Trek. You will be
picked up from Kathgodam at around 6 am and driven to the base
camp in Wan. The 12 hour drive is filled with curved roads, scenic
valleys and views of mountain ranges in the distance. On arrival in
Wan, you can settle down in your accommodation and explore the
town a little. The mighty Nanda Ghunti is visible from the town. Come
night and you retire for the day in anticipation of the trek next
morning.
The trail goes through the Wan village and giant deodar trees.
The climb is gradual. It will take 4-5hrs time to reach Ghairoli
Patal. It is the last camping site onwards to Bedni Bugyal.
Then you will see the see Wan river below the Raun Bagadthat rushes
to meet the Bedni Ganga. There you also will see the Lammergeiers,
that spread their massive wings to catch the eddies.
We climb uphill to exit the forest and enter the meadows of Ali
Bugyal. Trishul and Nanda Ghunti Peak will be visible from here. We
can further hike towards Ghora Lautani to map the length and
breadth of Bedni Bugyal. We descend to Ali Bugyal by evening. Lunch
will be provided while we are off hiking this trail. We can start early
this day to make the most of it.
Here clouds glide over the ridge in slow motion. You can see many horses
here pasturage on the bounty of nature.Here you have to climb or walk
around 5 kilometres to reach Bedni Bugyal. During this walk, you also can
put your shoes off to feel the tender touch of grasses on your toes.In these
areas, the weather fluctuates a lot, and here you also can witness the
beauty of wild sunrise. Don’t forget to carry your raincoat as you can get
rain sometimes in this region.

Ganga is an ideal location, where you can wash the grime of the long
trek.You will find the water refreshing and cool. From this river, you need to
