Ali Bedni Bugyal trek is ideal for beginners. You can even consider it as a pre-trek to get used to the rigors of high mountain hiking. Almost like an appetizer. It does not have difficult or technical sections, but a few sections on the trek can be challenging.
Mt Trishul and Mt Nanda Ghunti at their best. They stick out. By standing out, I mean you see their whole face, like the whole 6,000-7,000 feet of Mt Trishul right in front of you. Imagine the magnificence of the sunset.
The surprise when you find yourself in Ali Bugyal after walking through dense forests is unbeatable. The moment you step out of the shadows of the forest cover, you see acres and acres of green carpet spread out before you. The Trishul mountain stands tall against the blue sky and creates an imposing backdrop. Horses and their foals tear uninhibitedly across the lawn while cattle graze lazily on this bounty.
The walk to Bedni Bugyal from here is exciting! It is a walk that tempts you to take off your shoes and feel this carpet for yourself. Bedni Bugyal is the next stop in this meadow landscape – a strip of vibrant greenery overlooking the western valley. The Trishul and Nanda Ghunti mountains jut out directly from this meadow-like sentient and silent sentinel. If you climb Bedni Top, other high-rise buildings of the imposing Chaukhamba range will open before you. These incredible settings make these twins an unavoidable part of the tourist bucket list.
The oak and rhododendron forests on the Ali-Bedni Bugyal trek are the thickest I have walked. They may also be the rarest, as most of these trees are well over a thousand years old. Sunlight falling from spectacular angles. It is a photographer's delight to capture these sun rays falling through the leaves at charming angles. It creates wonderful lighting.
Ali Bedni trek has slightly longer trekking days and has steep ascents and descents. So it is rated as a level 2 moderate trek as it requires good endurance.
Coming to the details, this 5 day trek climbs from 7,550 feet to 12,550 feet. That's almost 5,000 feet of elevation gain. This climb is one of the main challenges of the trek. You have never seen such wonderful views on any trek. Forget any trek across the meadow.
The spring season is about to end on the Ali-Bedni Bugyal trek. Green meadows will soon start peeking out from under the snow. The Winter in this meadow is also mesmerizing.

Once back on Bedni Bugyal, take the path to the right and down. 20 minutes later you reach the tree line and steep descent that signals the end of the meadows. Follow the descending path on the left.
After an hour of descent in meadow, oak, and rhododendron forest, you will reach a clearing. A green tourist hut signals Gehroli Patal. On a clear day, you will get stunning views of Mount Trishul, which dominates the area. Set up camp here.
