Har ki dun Valley Snow Trek
Imagine
the pleasure of the sound of crunching snow under your feet, gazing
at verdant valleys that have a white carpet on the ground and big
green trees reaching for the sky. The snow trek into the famed Har
ki Dun valley promises all this and more. The chance to sight elusive
wildlife, the snowball fights, sipping hot cups of tea with bonfires
& the beautiful mountain people for company.
The terrain is so different from the one that is
seen in the regular trekking season, that it feels like having visited
a new place altogether.
