Package Highlights

Pindari and Kafni Glacier Trek Package 7 Nights 8 Days is a beautiful glacier trekking experience in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand. The trek starts from Khati Village, which is mentioned in the source as the last inhabited village on this route, located at around 2,210 meters. From Khati, the trail moves towards Dwali, which acts as the common halt point for both Pindari Glacier and Kafni Glacier routes.

This trek is a perfect combination of beginner-friendly glacier trail and challenging Himalayan terrain. The Pindari Glacier route continues from Dwali towards Phurkiya and Pindari Glacier Zero Point at around 3,660 meters, with gradual ascents and scenic mountain views. The Kafni Glacier route diverts from Dwali towards Khatiya and then reaches Kafni Glacier at around 3,860 meters. The source mentions that the Kafni section is more challenging due to boulder-strewn paths and unmarked trails caused by landslides.

Covering around 76 km, this trek offers snow-capped peaks, alpine meadows, dense forests, wooden bridges, mountain streams, glacial rivers and raw Himalayan landscapes. It is best done during the official trekking windows from mid-April to mid-June and from mid-September to mid-October. This journey is ideal for trekkers who want to experience two iconic glacier routes in one complete Kumaon Himalayan
