Overview


The reason Dayara Bugyal is so breathtakingly beautiful is because of its location. The meadow is at an elevation of over 10,000 feet. From Dayara, you can see the Greater Himalayan range in all its beauty. The majestic summits of the Gangotri range, including Bandarpunch, Kala Nag, Srikanth, Jaonli, and Draupadi Ka Danda, are so close that you can almost touch them. The meadow is famous for its alpine flowers, which bloom in a riot of colours during the summer. The most common flowers include Himalayan blue poppies, daisies, and primroses. The oak and rhododendron forests that surround the meadow are a beautiful contrast to the snow-covered mountains. The trek is home to several species of birds, including the Himalayan monal, the state bird of Uttarakhand.

Itinerary


    Raithal is a pleasant village famous as the base camp of the Dayara Bugyal trek. It is around 38 km away from Uttarkashi. The village flourishes with lush greenery. Bhagirathi River flows with you throughout the way up to the village. The route to Raithal is like a pathway between the mountains. Uttarkashi is the largest town on the route, and from here you will head to Bhatwari. The closer you get to the base camp, the more brilliant views of the mountains unfold in front of you.You will get the first glimpse of the Gangotri range, Shrikanth peak from the Moryana top. As you approach closer to Raithal, the views of mountain peaks get bigger, Shrikanth peak is one of the prominent peaks from here. In the evening, you will have a quick introduction and briefing session with the trek leaders and guides and you will be given a schedule of the upcoming trekking days and other related information. Dinner and stay in the homestay. PLEASE NOTE - Pick-up place: Dehradun railway station 7 am .
    Start early in the morning with an energized spirit to embark on the actual trek. The trail is a walk through the jungle. There are silver and gold oak trees all around. The route to the campsite is well marked and the campsite at Gui always remains in line of sight. The trail is easy and ascends gradually. It will take around 4-5 hours to reach the next resting point. Make sure to carry 2 litres of water as there are no water sources on the way. The mountain views become more and more prominent as you gain altitude while trekking towards Gui. The trail is mostly through forested areas that become denser as you travel towards Gui. The campsite is surrounded by alpine trees, unlike mountains. The campsite surrounded by forests of Silver and Golden Oak trees bloomed with Rhododendron.
    Today is an easier day comparatively. The trail rises slowly as the forest clears and you reach the next camping site of Chilpada. It will be a small trek. The trail follows out of the Gui campsite and onwards towards Dayara. As you climb out of Gui campsite, the mountains on the other side that were hidden come closer into view. You can find a flowing stream next to the camping site. Soak in the charms of a Himalayan forest in this leisurely walk. As the forest comes to an end, you are climbing further uphill and you will have to cross a couple of streams, which may or may not be flowing depending on the season. Hot lunch will be served at the campsite. After half an hour of crossing the stream, you will arrive at the Chilpada campsite. The campsite is a small opening in the meadows.
    • Altitude (Dayara Top): 3,700 m/ 12,100 ft | (Chilapada): 3,100 m/ 9,800 ft. • Trek Distance: Chilpada - Dayara Top: 5 km | Duration: 5-6 hr | Dayara Top - Chilapada: 5 km | Duration: 3-4 hr. • Easy to moderate trail. • Packed lunch on the way. • Carry enough water, only one water source near the top. • Massive views of many peaks and Dodital Range from top.
    The journey amidst the mountains of Dayara Bugyal comes to an end today. Wake up early to get packed up to descend back to Raithal. It is a 5 km distance from Chilapada to Raithal and takes about 3 hrs. Today is all about descending down and the descent is also fairly easy. About an hour into the trek you can see Raithal village from a distance. Continue on till you reach the base. Cherish the goodbyes with your fellow trekkers. After taking a memorable group picture, get into the cab that will ride you back to Dehradun. This will be a 6-hour long ride, from between the mountains, and valleys, and with the Bhagirathi river that was also a guide to you throughout the trek, marking the end of your incredible Dayara Bugyal trip.

Options to reach Dehradun

1. Take an overnight train/bus to Dehradun, and then take a cab to the pickup point.

We always recommend to go for the govt buses over the private ones outside the bus station as based on the experience we have found that there are very high chances of delay involved with private buses. Also, govt. buses are always more reliable. Whichever bus you choose, just make sure to reach Dehradun at least by 06:30 am positively.

2. Take flight to Dehradun airport (Jolly Grant Airport) (25 km, 50 min), if coming by flight then come one day early.

If you prefer to travel independently, you can either take a government bus or book a private cab.
