Meadows of Debshu Bugyal, a pine forest in Govind Peshu National Park, embraces the splendour of the pathways in the Har ki Dun valley.
Pickup (6-8am) from Dehradun in the morning for a 240 km (10 hours) lengthy but beautiful trip to Sankri through Mussoorie, Barkot, Purola, Mori, and Netwar along the Tons River. Located in the Uttarkashi district, on the slopes of the Himalayas, lies the peaceful village- Sankri. In addition to several other well-known treks, like the Kedarkantha Trek, Har ki Dun, Rupin Pass, Bali Pass, and countless more, this modest community serves as the base camp for these renowned treks. At an elevation of 6,400 feet above sea level, this community is situated within the Govind wildlife sanctuary. It is an ideal spot for those seeking a serene mountain vacation or those who are adventurous. This location has a breathtaking view of the Himalayas and a wealth of cultural heritage, thanks to its wooden construction. Spend the night in Sankri and have dinner there.
We will move from Sankri to Gangarh Village for 16kms drive after breakfast. The 4kms trek begins from Gangarh village to Osla village. The trek will last about 3-4 hours. Today’s trek will take you into a Himalayan region filled in wild orchids. Starting out in the valley next to the river Rupin’s true left, the route from Taluka village progressively drops before rising again. Later, the route passes through dense stands of chestnut, walnut, willow, chinar, and a variety of conifer trees. There are also a few waterfalls along the way. Osla village is eventually reached in the late afternoon. The Durtodhana temple, which is capped with a pair of intricately carved peacocks, is the most outstanding building in Osla Village’s reputation for great design. You will experience the beauty of taluka and dhatmeer village in the midway. Stay in the night at a homestay or campsite in Osla village.
You will reach the first in a succession of cleared lands after a 15-minute trek. To reach a lookout point, the route climbs over the meeting of the Supin and Ruinsara rivers. Look at the Kala Nag (Black Peak) and Bandarpooch mountains as you approach this vantage point. Your next campground, Kalkatiyadhaar, is soon accessible; it is located at an elevation of 8,956 feet.
On your right, you can plainly see the Dev Thach meadows. The valley now divides into two halves, with Har-ki-dun on the left and Ruinsara Taal, Bali Pass on the right. As you round the bend in the mountain, the Har Ki Dun peak and Hata Peak, with the Har-ki-Dun valley below, meet you. The path then crosses several creeks after that. There are a good number of rhododendron trees in the pine forest. Along the route, there is a magnificent stream that cascades down and has a variety of Himalayan alpine flowers growing along its edges. You leave the meadows behind when you arrive at a little waterfall after another 20 minutes. You must make a difficult ascent of roughly 15 minutes from this location. Now In front of you, two valleys can be seen that are separated by the Karmanasha stream. Maninda Taal and Borasu Pass are located in the valley to your left, while Jaundar Glacier is located in the opposite valley. In Kalkatiyadhaar, we’ll set up camp.
