Gulabikantha Trek – The Hidden Gem of Uttarakhand
Perched at an altitude of around 12,000 ft. above sea level, Gulabi Kantha is one of Uttarakhand’s most breathtaking yet lesser-known trekking destinations. This vast alpine meadow lies en route to the famous Dodital freshwater lake trek, but unlike Dodital, it remains untouched by heavy footfall, making it a true hidden paradise for trekkers and nature lovers.
What makes Gulabi Kantha truly special is its 360-degree panoramic view of the Himalayas. From this vantage point, trekkers can witness the towering Bandarpoonch Peak, Chaukhamba, Kalindi Srikala, and the Shivalik ranges, all bathed in hues of gold during sunrise and sunset. The meadow is also blessed with a diverse variety of flora and fauna, including seasonal wildflowers, Himalayan birds, and the occasional sighting of wildlife.
Despite its beauty, Gulabi Kantha has only recently gained attention, thanks to local villagers and guides who introduced it to a few media channels. Even the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) team from Matli explored the region to evaluate its potential for winter adventure sports like skiing. This makes Gulabi Kantha not only a trekking hotspot but also an upcoming hub for year-round adventure.
Best Time to Visit Gulabikantha Trek
Trekkaro recommends December to April as the best time to explore Gulabi Kantha. During winter, the meadow transforms into a snowy wonderland, perfect for those seeking a challenging snow trek or skiing experience. The months of March and April, on the other hand, bring blooming meadows and pleasant trekking conditions.
If you’re looking for an offbeat Himalayan trek with surreal beauty, adventure, and solitude, the Gulabi Kantha Trek is an experience you simply can’t miss!

As you leave Hanuman Chatti behind, the trail leads you into a dense forest, where tall pine, oak, and maple trees form a natural canopy overhead.

The serene silence of the forest is broken only by birdsong and the sound of rustling leaves, making the journey truly refreshing.

The trek to Gulabikantha Summit is both challenging and deeply rewarding, making it the highlight of the entire journey. Today is a long day, so trekkers begin early from Kandola with a packed lunch, full of anticipation for the adventure ahead. The initial stretch winds through dense pine and oak forests before opening into the alpine meadows of Seema Thatch (10,500 ft.), a picturesque stop surrounded by wildflowers and rolling hills.
From here, the trail becomes steeper, demanding more effort, but every step is worth it as the Himalayan grandeur unfolds. After about 4–5 hours of ascent, you reach the Gulabikantha Summit at 12,000 ft. Standing here feels like stepping into nature’s own masterpiece.

We are always prepared for unpredictable mountain weather — and encourage trekkers to share any safety concerns with our team for quick support.

- 🥾 Trek Distance: 14 km (7 km ascent + 7 km descent) · ⏱️ Duration: 6–7 hours · 🗻 Altitude Gain: ⬆️ ~1,068 m (~3,500 ft.) to summit, then ⬇️ ~1,068 m (~3,500 ft.) descent
The trek to Gulabikantha Summit is both challenging and deeply rewarding, making it the highlight of the entire journey. Today is a long day, so trekkers begin early from Kandola with a packed lunch, full of anticipation for the adventure ahead. The initial stretch winds through dense pine and oak forests before opening into the alpine meadows of Seema Thatch (10,500 ft.), a picturesque stop surrounded by wildflowers and rolling hills.
From here, the trail becomes steeper, demanding more effort, but every step is worth it as the Himalayan grandeur unfolds. After about 4–5 hours of ascent, you reach the Gulabikantha Summit at 12,000 ft. Standing here feels like stepping into nature’s own masterpiece. Panoramic views of towering Himalayan peaks surround you—Shivalik Mountains, Kalindi Srikala, Chaukhamba, Swargarohini, Black Peak, Bandarpoonch, Gangotri, Yamunotri, Jorkanden, Draupadi ka Danda, and many more form a spectacular skyline. Clouds drift across like brushstrokes on a canvas, enhancing the magical setting.
After spending time soaking in the serenity, capturing photographs, and enjoying lunch at the summit, you begin your descent. Retracing your steps through Seema Thatch and back to Kandola, the return is quicker but equally scenic.
Evening at Kandola is a time to relax, share stories of the day, and marvel at the unforgettable experience of standing atop Gulabikantha. Spend the night in tents surrounded by tranquil forests and starlit skies.

🔆 Highlights of the day:
- Gentle descent through pine & oak forests 🌲
- Scenic stop at Nishni village 🏡
- Serene Yamuna valley views 🌿
- Easy 2–3 hour trail back to base ✨
- 🥾 Trek Distance: 5 km · ⏱️ Trek Duration: 2–3 hours · 🗻 Altitude Loss: ⬇️ ~456 m (~1,500 ft.)
The final stretch of the Gulabi Kantha trek is relatively easy yet refreshing. Begin your day early, around 7:00 AM, with a wholesome breakfast before starting the descent from Kandola (8,500 ft.) to Hanuman Chatti (7,000 ft.). The trail involves a steady downhill walk, with some steep descending patches, making trekking poles handy for extra support. Covering a distance of 5 km, it usually takes about 2–3 hours to reach Hanuman Chatti, where the trek concludes.
After reaching Hanuman Chatti, you have the option to extend your day with a short 3 km drive or trek to Garam Kund, a natural hot water spring. Taking a rejuvenating dip here is highly recommended, as the warm mineral-rich waters are believed to soothe sore muscles and ease trek fatigue—an ideal way to wrap up your Himalayan adventure.
Once back at Hanuman Chatti, settle in for an overnight stay at a guest house, camp, or homestay. The quaint village offers a chance to immerse yourself in the peaceful mountain lifestyle. A quiet stroll through the lanes introduces you to the warm hospitality of locals. Learning and exchanging a few words in their native language is always appreciated, often enriching the cultural experience even more.
This relaxed day is the perfect balance of trekking, rejuvenation, and cultural interaction—leaving you with lasting memories of the Gulabi Kantha trek.

- 🚗 Drive Distance: 162 km · ⏱️ Duration: 7–8 hours · 🗻 Altitude Loss: ⬇️ ~1,685 m (~5,550 ft)
After completing the Gulabi Kantha trek, the return journey from Hanuman Chatti (7,000 ft.) to Dehradun takes about 7–8 hours by road, covering roughly 162 km. The scenic drive passes through Syana Chatti, Barkot, Naugaon, and Damta, before descending via Mussoorie into the Doon Valley.
Throughout the journey, you’ll witness stunning mountain views, lush pine and oak forests, and the sparkling Yamuna River flowing alongside in parts. Barkot serves as the last reliable point for ATMs and mobile connectivity, making it a good place for a short halt.
As the road winds down, the cool mountain air slowly gives way to the bustling plains of Dehradun. You’ll likely arrive by evening, with easy connections for onward travel by train, bus, or flight.
This final stretch is not just a drive back—it’s the perfect time to relax and reflect on your Himalayan adventure.

At Trekkaro, we redefine the trekking experience with our Free Trekking Gear (FTG) initiative — a game-changer in the adventure travel industry. We equip our trekkers with top-tier trekking gear at zero additional cost, including premium Decathlon products like:

We are always prepared for unpredictable mountain weather — and encourage trekkers to share any safety concerns with our team for quick support.
2. Health Monitoring: Daily Oxygen & Pulse Checks
Your well-being is our priority. For high-altitude treks, we conduct daily oxygen saturation and pulse monitoring (as needed) before and during the trek.

ATM point and Mobile connectivity
Important Pre-Trek Information
Last ATM – Barkot
- The last reliable ATM before reaching Hanuman Chatti is located at Barkot, which is about 1 hour and 30 minutes before the basecamp. Trekkers are strongly advised to withdraw sufficient cash here, as ATMs are either unavailable or non-functional beyond this point. Local shops, tea stalls, and transport providers in the higher regions mostly rely on cash transactions, so carrying enough money is a must.
Mobile Network – Barkot
- Barkot is also the last point where you’re likely to get a stable mobile network, except Jio, which doesn’t work well in this region. After Barkot, connectivity drops significantly, and by the time you reach Hanuman Chatti, mobile signals are almost non-existent. Ensure you complete all important calls, update family members, and settle urgent communication needs before moving ahead.
By keeping these essentials in mind, you’ll have a smoother transition from city convenience to the peaceful wilderness of Hanuman Chatti and beyond.
