Dayara Bugyal Trek

There is no better way to spend your long weekend than going on a trek to the mountains and breathing in the fresh air that is scarcely present in the metropolitan cities most of us are stuck in.

If you are an avid nature lover or an adventure enthusiast and are looking for an escape after being confined to the four walls of your home, then Dayara Bugyal is the perfect getaway for you.

Ideal for both beginners as well as experienced trekkers, this 22km long trek is extremely rewarding as you get to see some of the most magnificent peaks of the great Himalayan ranges, like the Gangotri massif, Black peak, Bhgirathi massif, Bandarpoonch massif etc.

In this long weekend getaway starting from Delhi, the first pit stop as well as our starting point for the trek is Raithal village, a peaceful hamlet nestled among rich foliage that will instantly lift up your spirits. 

The next day, we will be traversing through oak forests to reach our campsite Chelapada, where we will spend a tranquil night, listening to the rustling song of bugyal leaves in the backdrop.

The next day, we will begin our trek to Dayara Bugyal where we will spend some time, taking in the view from the summit which is situated at an altitude of more than 11000ft and experience the thrill that comes rushing through your veins, making you feel as if you are on cloud nine. 

The best time to do the Dayara Bugyal trek, especially for snow lovers, is from December to March. 

The best part is that this trek can be easily done during the time period of a long weekend so it can be the perfect time for you to do it as you won’t have to miss out on college or work. We highly recommend this trek as it’s a package of all good things and an experience that you definitely shouldn’t miss out on.
