Overview
The Bali Pass Trek isn’t just a trek — it’s a wild, high-altitude odyssey that takes you deep into the heart of the Indian Himalayas. Towering at 16,207 ft, this legendary trail is one of the most thrilling experiences in trekking in Uttarakhand, built for true adventure seekers.
From the ancient village of Kotgaon, your journey unfolds through timeless mountain hamlets like Osla and Gangad, whispering tales of Garhwali heritage. You walk beneath towering pine forests, cross glacial streams, and emerge into the vast meadows of Devsu Thach, where silence speaks louder than words.
As you ascend alongside the Ruinsara Gad, you’re led to an alpine wonderland surrounded by the icy giants of the Swargarohini massif — a view that will stop your heart. At over 15,000 ft, your camp sits above the clouds, and at dawn, the first golden light on the peaks feels nothing short of divine.
Then comes the crown jewel — the Bali Pass crossing. A sharp, knife-edge ridge leads to one of the highest navigable points in Uttarakhand, with jaw-dropping 360° views of Swargarohini, Bandarpoonch, Kalanag, and more. Every step is a test of grit and glory. And just when you think the challenge is over, a steep, rocky descent to Lower Damini keeps your adrenaline pumping till the last moment.
But Bali Pass is more than just a thrill — it's a soul-stirring blend of culture, landscape, and legacy. This is a trek where every sunrise tells a story, every valley echoes ancient chants, and every summit burns into your memory.
Not for the faint-hearted, the Bali Pass Trek demands preparation, endurance, and spirit. But if you’re ready to conquer it, get ready for one of the most unforgettable journeys in trekking in Uttarakhand.
