The trail passes by the small huts, cattle sheds, step farming fields, children greet you with innocent smile, shepherd boy leisurely walks past with his flock of sheep, path takes you to the top of the hill, this place is called ‘Ran-Ka -Dhar’, other side of the mountains opens up before you and you can witness the first glimpse of Mt Trishul. Trail goes down the hill upto Neel-Ganga river which is coming down from Bedni Bugyal. Treacherous uphill trek through dense forest starts after crossing the Neel-Ganga. Walking through Chir Pine and Rhododendron forest listening to the sound of chirping of birds, rustling of leaves and gurgling of narrow streams, brings one closer to nature.
The Ali Bedni Bugyal meadows have an elevation of around 11686 feet from the ground. This alpine meadow lies along the Northern edge of Almora, Nainital, Gwaldam, and Kausani hill stations. The Mt. Trishul standing tall and firm against the clear blue skies makes a picture-perfect backdrop.
