The autumnal time in the Har Ki Dun valley reveals its most beautiful state. This time of year offers the chance to take in breathtaking scenery without having to endure the more harsh winter temperatures when snow-capped peaks form stunning backdrops against vibrant red chaulai plants which flourish throughout. When the snow starts melting towards the end of April Har Ki Dun sheds its winter coat and reveals the stunning and raw landscape in which the Supin river flows through with renewed clarity, forming stunning light and shadow between the pine trees that sparkle in the golden glow of pine needles while our mules stroll peacefully by.
Har Ki Dun Trek in Uttarakhand's Garhwal Himalayas is particularly enjoyable in the autumn months usually from late September until early November. Once the monsoon season has ended the landscape becomes unbelievable, with stunning images of Swargarohini, Black Peak, and Bandarpoonch against a vivid blue sky. In addition, bronze and golden shades that adorn the oak, maple and walnut trees begin their transformation into magnificent views to behold. Great for nature lovers and photographers alike, the trekking conditions in Nepal provide perfect trekking conditions: pleasant temperatures in the day, cool evenings well-maintained trails, free of leeches and monsoon residue creating the perfect trekking conditions. Osla and Gangad villages add another layer of attraction, where visitors can observe local life including harvest celebrations, as well as traditional celebrations as communities prepare for winter. The autumn season truly reveals the Valley of the Gods' glittering beauty.
