Auli was an interesting and a nice trek. This is one of the easy treks to take. I am not sure if I would have done this trek with such ease as a first timer, but now that I have been into constant trekking, I guess this is a fun and nice trek. The beauty of the trek surroundings is so lovely that words won\u2019t suffice  The trek was great. The bird\u2019s eye view from the trek top was WOW! That moment all the leg pain, feet swelling, etc. seemed worthy. The trek was awesome, and the whole trip was enjoyable. Of course, it is not a trip if it had no hassles, right? We had our fair share of hassles during the trip, but that being said, the trek was awesome to say the least. I personally would recommend this trek to all the trekking freaks.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b0707ab e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b0707ab\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;full&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b22f0c0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b22f0c0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Kuari Pass trek started after we were driven to Dhak village by our trek guides. From there, we started hiking through dense forests, snowy trails and lot more and reached the Chitrakantha camp. The tents for our overnight stay were of very good quality and we got the required break and rest in them. Following this, the third, fourth and fifth day also followed the same routine: trek and rest. The overall experience was really fascinating and One must go for this atleast once.Kuari Pass \u2013 The Best Himalayan Trek For Beginners  best option\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8cb2ef7 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"8cb2ef7\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;full&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-47f9586 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"47f9586\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIf you are stepping into Himalayas for the first time then Kuari Pass is the trek to do.
