Govind Pashu Vihar National Park is the home to many trekking routes. Sankri, situated within the park, acts as a base camp for treks such as Har Ki Dun, Bali Pass and Kedarkantha.
Pushtara Meadows via Phulara Ridge is one of the lesser known but an amazing trek. The trek is very unique due to the landscape and nature of its trail.
Ridges are uncommon in the Indian Himalayas. But this trail takes you on a walk a top a ridge that lasts for almost 2 hours!
Given that this is one of a kind trek in the Uttarakhand Himalayas, it is slowly earning its well-deserved fame in the trekking world, it is best to pay it a visit before the crowds arrive.
During the summer, the trek provides an opportunity to witness the enchanting meadows of Pushtara with its rare alpen-glow, blooming rhododendrons. All these features make this trek the most suitable time to do this trek in summer. Light rain at this time makes the journey even more pleasant.
