Complete Itinerary
Before beginning the hike up to Har Ki Dun, travelers must first make the lengthy trip from Dehradun to Sankri. Sankri serves as the starting point for the journey and is also a popular starting point for a great number of other treks. You will need to get an early start from Dehradun, maybe in the neighbourhood of six in the morning. The trip is around 10 hours long and covers a distance of about 200 km. The journey that you take throughout the day is both beautiful and picturesque. The route passes through some of the most breathtaking scenery in Uttarkashi. The route takes you through Mussoorie many times. It travels through a number of different villages, including Naugaon, Purola, and Mori. The journey is completely beautiful, with mountain ranges and woods greeting you at every turn of the road. Due to the length of the journey, you will be need to pull over at some point for lunch. You will stop along the route for a delectable lunch at one of the numerous trailside restaurants that are popular with hikers. You should get at Sankri by the evening. Prepare yourself for the hike that you will be on tomorrow, rent or purchase the hiking gear that you will need, or acquire anything else that will come in handy while you are on the hike. Sankri is home to a stunning market, known as the bazaar.
After the first night in Sankri, you will have a brief car ride the next day. The journey will take you to a location known as Taluka. Your hiking will get underway after you reach Taluka. This very short trip offers a lot of excitement because to the dense woods and winding streams it passes through. Before you begin your hike now, make sure that your food and water bottles are adequately stocked, and don't forget to fill up your water bottle. The walk begins in a picturesque location beside the Tonnes River and then enters a forest filled with conifers. After that, it gets to the bridge. There is a fording of the river, and after about twenty minutes of walking, you will reach a wooden bridge that, when crossed, will bring you to the waters below. After then, the walk turns into a delightful experience with numerous shade trees. Because there is none of the blinding light that comes with the day, this is perfect for photography. You will be able to hear the sounds of the river flowing and the birds singing as you make your way through the forest while strolling under its canopy. During the warm summer months, this path is often used by residents as a freight ferrying route. And throughout the fall, you'll see that they are stockpiling the things they need to get through the winter. A picturesque town known as Gangar will come into view after a few hours of hiking on the trail. Several quick-service restaurants may be found in this area. This is something that can only be experienced on a select number of India's treks. Make this your lunch break destination. After lunch, you will be treated to a breathtaking panorama of miles-long potato and maize fields along your walk. Almost immediately after that, you will arrive to the Pauni Garaat campground where you will be staying.

Today is the pinnacle of the journey. You are planning to leave the campground quite early in the morning. Savour the delectable breakfast, and get ready for the most gorgeous and enjoyable day of the walk today. This day has a variety of stunning sceneries. You will go over several moraines as well as some breathtaking meadows. The glacier basin hike has the potential to be difficult, but it also has the potential to be rewarding. The hiking path is lined with tall pine trees.
The ascents along today's trek vary in difficulty from moderate to severe. In the winter, when the temperatures are very low and there is a heavy blanket of snow, there are waterfalls that have frozen over. When early summer arrives, the waterfall has a magnificent cascading effect. You will succeed in reaching the peak of Har Ki Dun if you give it one more effort. Take in the breathtaking panorama of the picturesque valley below and the snow-capped mountains that surround you. A breathtaking panorama of the peaks of the Swargarohini, Hata, and Black mountains can be seen from the top.
During your visit, spend some time at the peak. Take in all of the natural splendor that surrounds you. In towns and cities, you will not get to see nature in its most beautiful form. After lunch, you will continue to walk along the same path. Continue descending till you reach the same camping spot at Kalkattiyadhar.
This marks the beginning of your trip back. The journey to Sankri will be exactly the same as the one you took previously. Therefore, the journey is the same as before. You are now going to start climbing, but you will continue to descend until your very final day. On the other hand, this is an opportunity to reexperience those times in the valleys and landscapes once again. Make use of your camera to take pictures of as many different landscapes and scenes as you can. You are going to look back on these times and love them. The route to the campground runs via Oslo village and ends up in Pauni Garaat.
Continue your journey along the same route as before. You should be comfortable with the route by now, and you'll probably be chatting with other hikers while you're out there. You are going to carry the hangover from the trip with you for a long time. You will get to Taluka through hiking, which should take you somewhere in the neighbourhood of six hours. There are 10 km between us. After you have arrived in Taluka, Sankri is just a short distance away by car. Be cautious with your footing as you make your way down, since you will be doing so the whole time. Walk firmly and fasten your shoes up all the way to the top of your ankle.
