    Yes, the first few days were very impatient as we had to wait to make it to the Jaundhar Glacier. Then it came on the fourth day of trekking after we got to enjoy the lush beauty of the Har Ki Doon valley on the third day. Trekking was pretty easy and was very exciting. Must mention here about the treatment we got from the trek guides and staffs. They were helpful in all the ways and did their best to make us comfortable at such great heights.

    This trek is taken from Dehradun to Dehradun back. It is good and interesting. The trek is one of the very beautiful treks ever. It is quite tedious and expensive too. However, it all seems very worthy and nice to take. This is mainly because of the beautiful trek trails. It was awesome. One can spot glaciers, temples, caves, meadows, and what not during the trek. Best trek.

    Everything about Har Ki Dun Trek started from a small discussion with all friends. All were ready to take this trek and once decided we were searching for a good and experienced organiser. Some of our friends had already experienced some events with Thrillophilia and thus we too ended up booking the trek with them. The way they planned the Har Ki Dun Trek itinerary was really amazing and also the guides and crew members appointed were very good. The overall service along with the experience of trekking was awesome and was totally exciting.

    This was my second trekking experience in the Garhwal region. Truly a delight! the services provides before and during the trek is highly appreciable. The trekking is an amazing experience and is certainly a must for all backpackers. What a beauty! throughout the trek I was fully lost in the natural beauty, India has such good places that most of us are not aware of, and this region is definitely one of them.

    The Jaundhar Glacier views are best seen in the month of March where there is snow but it's melting as well so that we can see a clear view of the glacier. The trek has the best of the views and the most amazing trek we have been to yet.

    Uttarkhand is called the land of Gods! And now I know exactly why! After going on the Hark i Dun trek, I can honestly say that it is like god own garden paradise. The sweeping views of the Himalayas and the merry streams that we met along the way; I am sure everything is going to stay fresh in my memory forever more. Hats off the tour facilitators who made sure that our experience was without a hitch!
