Booked: Gorson Bugyal Trek with Camping Book

Going on the trek in Auli was the best decision we made. The trek offers a completely different view of the Auli and we just loved camping there.

Booked: Gorson Bugyal Trek with Camping Book

Our friend went through this trek last year and suggested we go to Thrillophilia. The trek went really amazing and we had seen the best of the mountain views and a great amount of snow during the trek. It was the best way to welcome the New Year. Thanks, Thrillophilia for a wonderful trekking experience.
