Kafni Glacier Trek – A Hidden Gem in Uttarakhand
The Kafni Glacier Trek is a breathtaking Himalayan adventure in Uttarakhand, offering stunning views of Nanda Kot (6,861m) and Nanda Bhanar (6,104m) peaks. Located at 3,860 meters, this offbeat trek is an extension of the Pindari Glacier Trek, starting from Loharkhet and passing through scenic villages like Khati, Dwali, and Phurkiya.

Unlike the more popular Pindari Glacier, the Kafni Glacier route is quieter, making it perfect for nature lovers and solitude seekers. Trekkers walk through lush forests, alpine meadows, and glacial streams, with the pristine Kafni River accompanying the trail. The best time to do the Kafni Glacier Trek is from May to June and September to October, when the weather is clear, and the landscapes are at their best.

This moderate-difficulty trek is ideal for experienced beginners looking for a less crowded yet rewarding Himalayan experience. If you’re searching for a serene trek in Uttarakhand, Kafni Glacier should be on your bucket list!
