Pindari Glacier

More Images

Pindari Glacier lies between two prominent peaks Nanda Devi and Nanda kot. Its rugged beauty offers a breathtaking sight, especially for the trekkers who are in love with nature in all its pristine glory.

The colour of Pindari Glacier is pure white and at some places, spots of light blue and brown may also be seen. The glacier is over 3.2 kilometers in length and 1.5 km broad, backed by mighty mountains, looming-up on the traveller with a gorgon gaze, leaving an indelible impression of grandeur.

The Pindari trek takes place at the edge of Nanda Devi. We start our journey from Nainital to Lahorkhet. Here we will get a chance to stay in the camps. Dhakuri is another place to cherish at night. Then while moving further we will find the mountain villages and forests. To stay in the camps in different places will be a phenomenal experience for us. This takes us through some of the most spectacular landscapes. The traditional, remote villages are a special attraction for any visitor.

A trip to the Pindari Glacier is well within the capacity of any trekker, amply rewarded by magnificence of the majestic grandeur of the Himalayan Treks, the beauty of mountain flora and fauna. We can also witness the snowy ranges, gurgling hill torrents and roaring water-falls and the rays of the morning sun splitting into manifold spectral hues, making visible every drop of dew on every blade of grass. The incredible wealth of colour and beauty never ceases to amaze, as with every curve of a meandering rivulet, and every corner rounded is present a new spectacle.
