The Phulara ridge trek is a hidden gem in Uttarakhand that offers a truly unique experience—walking along a high-altitude ridge with uninterrupted 360-degree views of the surrounding Himalayan peaks. Starting from the village of Sankri, this moderate-level trek is ideal for those seeking a peaceful trail less crowded than the popular ones, yet just as scenic. The route passes through dense pine forests, open meadows, and remote campsites, gradually leading to the spectacular Phulara ridge trek, where the trail runs along a narrow spine for several kilometers with jaw-dropping vistas on both sides.
What makes this trek special is the long ridge walk, a rarity in Indian trekking trails. On a clear day, you can spot snow-capped peaks like Swargarohini, Bandarpoonch, Kala Nag, and many more. The trail is rich in alpine flora and birdlife, making it a paradise for nature lovers and photographers.
With Himalaya Shelter, the best trekking company in Uttarakhand, you get experienced guides, comfortable logistics, and a commitment to safety and sustainability.
Best time to visit: May to June and September to November, when the skies are clear and the views are at their best.
