Invigorating Meadows

The meadows and forest clearings have always been perfect for camping, it is bliss to camp amidst the forest or in the middle of a meadow and “Mukta Top” is included in one of the places which have got the best clearings like Kedarkantha. Snow covers the meadows in the winter season, which makes the sight eye-pleasing and bracing. This is one of the reasons that it makes a great winter trek and can be done by beginners because of the low altitude.

Sublime view of Mountain Peaks From Mukta Top

The meadows above forest offer view of some high peaks of Uttarakhand and the best thing about this winter trek is panoramic views of all these mountains are visible from the summit (3,608 m).
