For those trekking to Kheerganga, Bunbuni pass is a natural, more beautiful extension. It is at an altitude of 10,987 ft. and a day’s distance from Kheerganga with about 7-8 km uphill steep trek. It is a slightly difficult trek which is quite steep and tests your endurance and physical fitness at the same time. The trail is kind of secluded from any signs of civilisation and that is the beauty of this scenic route. You will pass through the dense oak forest which opens to a stunning view of lush green meadows and snow-capped mountains. The breeze, the air and the view is so pure and serene, you will completely fall in love with the picturesque backdrop nature has. Here you can spend the night in your tents, enjoy campfire and gazing at the trillions of stars above
