I have done multiple treks in last 8 years and it is one of the most beautiful treks I have ever done.
Pindari Glacier Trek best point I did here was the river crossing, interaction with baba ji and the stories of the Nanda Devi peak.
Night Stargazing was the most mesmerising time for me.
In short I can say indeed, those were the best days of my life. Pindari Glacier Trek is the must doing trek for everyone.
