One of the short but sweet treks in Uttarakhand. But much more beautiful if you visit it in winters. The trek is suitable for beginners as it takes around 4-6 hrs to complete. Also depending upon the weather conditions.

Wow !
I visited Auli in Feb, G B was fully covered in snow.so it was trekking in snow for me, which was all together a different and amazing experience than usual ones.
It's a 3 KM trek from Auli where ropeway drops you.

If you are hiking in the Indian Himalayas, just like me one might find it difficult to go on long hikes by yourself. No trail markings plus good luck getting permission from the Forest Department without hiring a Guide. Found this place somehow through a warm and enthusiastic local at the small and unpopular village of Ramni, Uttarakhand, India. Totally recommend speaking to Dinesh if you're looking for off-beat hikes in the Indian Himalayas. He said he is reachable on dinesh.bisht282@gmail.com or 8958084282

We were told that most people walk up and down in about 4 hours flat and that it was a pleasant walk through slightly undulating highlands.
Keeping our heart conditions in mind we preferred to take the ponies for some 1200/pony for a total of half an hours stay up there. The path up was very pleasant and through some of the loveliest jungles, we had occasion to be in. On reaching the top there was nothing but there was everything. Complete tranquility, pure air and picture-postcard perfect locales.
The army jawans returning form a trek somewhere behind the next hill added to the mystique of the place.
Stayed there for around 45 of the loveliest minutes of our life.
Don't forget to take everything you could ever want with you, including water bottles, eatables if you want them and anything else you could want because there are no shops or even stalls after you leave the base point of the trek.

My family, from 6 year son and my 55 year brother in law visited. It's one of the best place to do a short family Trek. A beautiful 360 degree view and peaks like Nandadevi, Trishul Dronagiri can be seen. So must visit. Horses are available for the trek

The length of the trek is not much, ideal for beginners. However getting acclimatized to the altitude is a challenge. One can start the trek from the GMVN guesthouse or from Tower no 10 where the Cable Car ends. If starting from the GMVN guesthouse, one can break for tea at the Cable Car station. On the way to the station, there is an artificial lake used to replenish the snow for the ski slopes in winter.
From the cable car station the track winds uphill through a forest which had patches of snow, even in April. Inside the forest, there is a small temple which one can visit before venturing up to the grassy slopes above.
The views of the peaks from the top are exhilarating. Please be advised to come down before sundown as the walk throught the forested area can be risky in the dark.

The trek offers majestic views. You can take ropeway to reach tower no 10, and start your trek. You should take a guide as well, who can be quite helpful.

Auli is one of the best place to go if you want a peaceful place to stay for a few days. i went to Auli in December 2018 for two days. It was awesome for me. snow peaks in front of you when you open your windows. Its so peaceful and beautiful scene. there is no shopping mall in Auli. it is only a place to rest and enjoy the cool air and mountain view and snow.

Gorson Bhugyal is Auli's most important tourist attraction, everyone must visit this place. You can take a cable car to reach top of Auli and from there you can go to Gorson by trekking.

We plan to do this trek as part of our visit in mid-Oct. Would appreciate help is providing answers to the below queries to help us plan better:
1. We are planning to stay in GMVN Auli Ski Resort. We will have a mid sized car at our disposal. How far can we drive to start the trek, upto which specific location?
2. What is the expected distance and how steep is the trek path? We do not have much experience of mountain trek, hence asking.
3. What is the weather expected to be in mid-Oct? Will there be snow in the trek path? Also is there any chance of snow or rain in mid-October in general?
4. What are the guide charges in general & where can we get them?

The GMVN is the last stop where cars can reach. From there you need to trek up. The ski lift can drop you part of the way just beyond the Aulu Resort. The trek is not too steep. Try to get acclimatized for a day or two before attempting it. Tge guide is not really necessary, but if required the hotel can provide.
How to get the permission to trek Gorson bugyal. Will it be issued immediately?
Also, if you know some one who can help, please share those details with me.
You don't have to take any permission.

I am planning to go for 3 day trek next week.
How was the weather and what are the necessities that we should bring for sure
hey Abhinav,
I will be reaching Auli by the 31st. Do you think I will have possibilities of witnessing snow in Gorson then?
Also, can you suggest me a cheap place to stay?
