I do not recommend Roopkund trek for first timers. If you still want to do that make sure that you hire a good guide. The weather is very unpredictable there.
Expect bouts of rain at the time you are visiting. You may look in to Uttaranchal forum to find other treking destinations. |

Yes- ROOPKUND is not for first timers...and in MAY ..this is going to be very very tough to reach upto lip of KUND. This whole region is snow bounded.
I think following will be fine for new trekkers. 1. Pindari Glacier 2. Outer Nanda Devi Sanctuary [ Kuari Pass] 3. Hem Kund+ Valley of flowers |

Hi
We are a lot going to Roopkund in June. If you are a little shaky about the idea, you could join us. We are leaving June 14 Delhi. Hopefully start trek on 16 June. Arjun |
