Pindari-Kafni Glacier Exploration

#ashokasays Did you know 168:

This post will suerly excite trekking lovers..
Pindari Valley is a jewel of the Kumaon in Uttarakhand, surrounded with an impressive series of snow capped peaks that form the southern rim of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary. During the trekking season you can savor the unimaginable raw beauty as the valley springs to life with a vibrant display of greenery and wildlife. As you reach Loharkhet you are welcomed with a grand view of Nanda Devi, Trishul and Nanda Kot peaks.
The trail keeps throwing up surprising twists consistently from beautiful river crossings and waterfalls on the way from Dhakri to Dwali, to getting lost in the forests enroute to Phurkiya only to be stumped when you finally come out of the forest to the jaw dropping view of Nanda Khat peak towering above.
Pindari and Kafni glaciers are not the longest or largest glaciers of Himalayas by any standard. However, the easy approach towards reaching the glaciers huge ice-fall section is seldom matched elsewhere. And this makes the trek one of the most beautiful ones you can do here in this amazing country.

INCREDIBLE BHARATHA
