Kagudi Bhel Pass, located at an elevation of 4,750 meters, is a challenging high-altitude ridge pass in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand. The trek connects the Ramganga Valley to the Johar Valley, offering trekkers a rugged and remote path through the pristine landscapes of the upper Himalayas.
Starting from Gogina Village (2,600 meters) in Bageshwar district, the journey spans roughly 60 km, eventually reaching Munsiyari (2,200 meters). Along the route, trekkers navigate awe-inspiring and demanding terrains, including Ranthan Kharak (3,800 meters) and Namik Glacier (3,600 meters). In addition, the trail passes through Bagudiyar (2,500 meters), a critical junction leading to Milam Glacier (3,850 meters) and the Nanda Devi East Base Camp (4,200 meters).
As trekkers descend from Kagudi Bhel Pass to Mohar Pani (3,600 meters) and Poting (3,400 meters), the path becomes steep and rocky, making this trek more suitable for experienced trekkers. The ideal times for this adventure are early summer (May–June) and autumn (September–October), when the skies are clear, offering panoramic views of the majestic Himalayan peaks.
