Gurson Bugyal is a high-altitude alpine meadow at 3,056 metres, a gentle 3-kilometre trek from the top of the Auli ridge through mixed oak, conifer, and rhododendron forest, making it one of the most scenic places to visit in Auli. The bugyal itself is a broad grass-covered plateau with a 360-degree view of the Garhwal snow peaks, where Nanda Devi and Kamet dominate the skyline and the Hathi Ghoda range runs along the opposite ridge. The wildflowers in May and June add to its appeal, making it one of the top attractions in Auli.
What makes this place special
The bugyal’s horseshoe shape opens to a sweeping arc of Nanda Devi, Kamet, Hathi Parvat, Dunagiri, and Ghori Parvat, making it a standout highlight of Auli sightseeing.
