Ruinsara Tal Trek
Ruinsara Tal (3500M), a clear water lake is at the foot of Mt. Kalanag and is about 14Kms from Osla/Seema. Ruinsara Tal is another attractive place for trekkers in the Uttarkashi district of Uttarakhand. The lake is surrounded by Alpine Pastures and low Rhododendrons and is considered as sacred by the inhabitants of the Har-Ki-Doon Valley. The lake is near the source of Supin river. From here one gets closer views of Mt. Kalanag, Ruinsar range, BandarPoonch, and Swargarohini peaks which are superb. Located just below the Bandarpoonch Glacier the lake is an ideal camping site.

Tour Reviews
Beautiful alpine lake trek which is a must do from sankri circuit. Green Valley Himalayas provide a personalized experience and friendly local guides with deep knowledge of the flora and trek. Providing experiences like chai pakode in the hills, a comfortable stay at amazing campsites and the best trek route through meadows and rivers. I would definitely recommend this trek and organisation’s with a 10/10
One of the best lake trek must to be included with Har ki dun trek with awesome views of Mt. Kalanaag, swarg rohini peak and Beautiful glacier. The trek became all the more special with guidance under Arjun Rawat and his Co members of GVK group. I’ll highly recommend Arjun and his team for the wonderful and safe trek experiences.. thank you Arjun for making it happen.
This was my first ever trek and was a bit concerned how it would be to opt for a 12500 ft trek for the first time .But it turned out to be super awesome .Thanks to Arjun and the entire team of Green Valley Himalayas fir making this first ever trek experience a memorable one. The hospitality is superb and they make you feel so comfortable.
I definitely recommend Green Valley Himalayas .
Great arrangements. Very well conducted! Definitely recommend Green Valley Himalayas as your service provider for the trek. They will take care of everything!
I have done many treks with GVH and every time it is conducted very professionally. Staff is excellent and extremely helpful
Had the most exhilarating trek to Har Ki Dun, Ruinsara and Devsukh Bhogiyal. Most professionally arranged with very knowledgeable guides. An absolute pleasure.
This was my first trekking experience in Uttarakhand. The arrangements made by Green Valley Himalayas very professional and their entire staff was helpful and cordial. I will recommend them to my friends and colleagues. Looking forward to another trek in May 23.
This was my first trek in Himalayas..
It was a very good and memorable experience for me.
Our trekking group was of old friends whom I knew before.
But Arjun’s staff was so good that I felt similar warmth and friendliness from them.
I look forward to do many such trek with this team.
It goes without saying that trek was conducted professionally keeping safety in mind at all times.
