The trek itself isnt that difficult. But the descent down to Yamunotri is of another level. Walking on one foot wide ridges with 1000 meter + drops next to you. Unbelievable. Sadly a porter of another group fell down when i did this trek in june 2018. Its just a very dangerous descent for inexperienced trekkers. But its very, very beautiful and impressive.
Can you please make a video on how to get fit for the trek , a elaborate video on how to get fit for different levels like easy moderate and difficult Because I have seen trekkers go under prepared for moderate and easy trek thinking it will be manageable If you make a video on these 3 levels the trekkers know exactly what to do and how much preparation is needed for each trek
We did the pass during May 11 to 18 batch with Bikat. Please do note that, it is insanely hard during may. Hi Swati, Can you please add some details on last tricky decent to lower Dhamni which has a direct drop of around 200 feet ? This is way too risky and people should know about it before the trek
Hi Abhishek, We don’t organise the Bali Pass in July. July-August is peak monsoon season in Uttarakhand. Heavy rainfalls make the trail dangerous for trekkers. The best time to do the Bali Pass trek would be in the summer- May and June. The gradual transition of the trail from snow to greenery is something to behold. Another good time to do the Bali Pass trek is in the post-monsoon and Autumn season - September to October. The trail is lush green in September, fresh from the monsoon outpour.

Didi, mujhe kuch jaroori questions puchne hai. Kindly bata do : Meine 14 july ko plan krlia bali pass, aap mausam ki information dedo. permit konsi jagah hai? Charges kitne hote hai per person? Aur forest department waale jaate hi de deinge kya permit?
Hi Anubhav. We don’t suggest you do Bali Pass trek as a DIY Trek as it is a very difficult trek and needs professional guidance. In case you plan to do this with us, here is the full itinerary for this trek: indiahikes.com/bali-pass-ruinsara-tal
I have done one easy-moderate trek before. Can i attempt bali pass in may-june next year? I am fit and can work more on my fitness. So is it worth a try ?
You will enjoy it better if you have some more experience. But it also depends on how fit you can get, and whether you can meet the fitness criteria. You'll find more details about it here - indiahikes.com/bali-pass-ruinsara-tal/
We understand your friend has done the Bali Pass Trek and found it comfortable. This probably means he is very fit and strong for a first time trekker. We assign trek difficulty based on many factors. You can have a look at it here : indiahikes.com/blog/difficulty-ratings-mean As a safety protocol, we require our trekkers to be very fit for the trek and have prior high altitude trek experience. This helps the trekking team in a big way to have a good trek.
We carried ice axe and ropes and they were useful in two difficult sections. You don't need any special equipments, only the normal stuff for any high altitude trek, like good trek shoes,down jackets UV protection etc. Fitness and good health are most important .
Even though the best time to do this trek is June and September, I would like to know if it is doable in March. I'm confused whether the snow will be too less that the climb will become rocky or too much that the snow layer would be very deep to walk into. Also, I understand that the temperature levels would go down a lot more than that in June, but still, if anyone has done it in march and share their experience...
Kashmir is not known for such high altitude treks, it is known for huge meadows, skiing and beautiful lakes. Uttarakhand is best for such treks because it's a home to some of highest mountains in the world. In India, most highest peaks are in this region. Himalayas are spread in 11 states and 2 union territory and 5 out of 10 highest peaks in India are in uttrakhand alone. So, that's way !

Did he survive ?
@@thewanderboyjitinraj9010 Most probably no
That's extremely insightful! Thank you sharing your experience. We hope trekkers pay heed to what you have to say and stay cautious!
Hi Swati, I have done Pangarchula, Buran Ghati and brahmatal trek in past, Can i approach for bali pass next considering difficulty.
Acchha interview on Bali pass.......
Dhanyabad.........
Hi Swati. How many fleece jacket and how many down feather jacket do we need for such a trek
can you plz make a video about what is a mountain pass. and difference between taal and kund in mountains
A mountain pass is a crossing between two mountains, kind of like a Path. A taal is a lake and a Kund is a Pond.

Does it become easier in June last week
@@v1k1ng43 Yup, it does. Grand view of Swargarohini will be awesome too. I suggest june early would be best , so that you can avoid any rains too.
Hello. Is it open during November?
@@mukherjeesayan201 As per my knowledge, No. Even if it is, it is risky to do this trek or many other which are above 16k in November
@@maheshg.n.9688 Thankyou buddy for the info. Will go there during a suitable time then 💯
Can I do the trekking in 2nd week of April?
Is it preferably possible in the end of July?

my 1 friend completed bali pass on their first trek in mountains.not very difficult trek.coming down from bali pass is little difficult.not very hard

Is there snowfall in September?
Not likely. You do see some snow patches because it is a permafrost zone. But there won't be as much snow as in June.
Hi Swati, M interested for coming September, mid.
Please share details and costs.
You'll find all the details here - indiahikes.com/bali-pass-ruinsara-tal/
The post-monsoon dates aren't out yet, you'll see them in a month or so. :)
What will be the precaution one should take to reach Bali pass. What are the necessary equipments required for woman trekkers for this Bali pass trek?
We carried ice axe and ropes and they were useful in two difficult sections. You don't need any special equipments, only the normal stuff for any high altitude trek, like good trek shoes,down jackets UV protection etc. Fitness and good health are most important .
Y'all failed to cover the awfully tough descent with conditions worsened after rain and snow.

Pratyush Malik March you will not be able to do as the snow is generally very high..
