The Auli Meadows: Your Cozy Escape in the Garhwal Himalayas

glamping tent at luxury resort Auli Joshimath

The Auli Meadows is a luxury resort in Auli nestled inside blooming apple orchards and alpine bugyals of the Garhwal Himalayas. Unlike crowded commercial hotels in Auli, we offer an intimate boutique experience — Swiss glamping tents and Pinewood Cottages with 360° views of Nanda Devi, guided Gorson Bugyal treks from our doorstep, and warm Garhwali meals at our mountain-view restaurant. Whether you are visiting in peak winter or the magical April spring season, this luxury Auli resort is your perfect Himalayan basecamp.

April is one of the most magical times to be here. The skiing crowds have gone, the peaks are still laced with snow, and the first wildflowers are pushing through the bugyal grass. It is shoulder season in the best possible way: fewer people, lower rates, and the Himalayas entirely to yourself.

Located just a short walk from the Auli ropeway and ski slopes, The Auli Meadows is your perfect base for Gorson Bugyal spring treks, Niti Valley day trips, Kuari Pass adventures, and peaceful Nanda Devi viewings — whatever the season.
