Day 1: Dehradun to Sankri (195 km)

The journey starts with a 7-8 hour drive from Dehradun to Sankri, passing through the scenic hills of Mussoorie and alongside the Yamuna River. The last stretch through Govind Wildlife Sanctuary offers stunning views despite some rough patches. You’ll arrive in Sankri by evening and stay in guesthouses or homestays. After check-in, you can explore the area before dinner and a briefing for the next day.

Day 2: Sankri to Juda-ka-Talab (4 km)

After breakfast, you begin the 4 km trek to Juda-ka-Talab, climbing steeply to 9,100 feet. The trail is lined with maple and pine leaves, and you’ll pass through dense forests and rural scenes. You’ll reach the serene lake by midday, where you’ll have lunch, enjoy group activities, and camp overnight under the stars.

Day 3: Juda-ka-Talab to Kedarkantha Base Camp (5 km)

Following breakfast, you’ll trek 5 km to Kedarkantha base camp. The trail, though steep in places, is beautiful and relatively easy, passing small lakes and oak-laden forests. Upon reaching the base camp, you’ll enjoy lunch and evening activities like group games and acclimatization walks. The night promises stunning stargazing opportunities.

Day 4: Summit Kedarkantha and descend to Juda-ka-Talab/Hargaon (6 km)

Starting early (around 2 or 3 am), you’ll trek to the Kedarkantha summit to catch the sunrise. The climb is moderately difficult but rewarding, with views of 13 Himalayan peaks and a small shrine at the top. After enjoying the views, you’ll descend back to Juda-ka-Talab or Hargaon, stopping for lunch at the base camp before continuing. You’ll camp overnight once more.

Day 5: Juda-ka-Talab/Hargaon to Dehradun

The final day involves a 4-hour trek from the camp to Sankri, followed by a 7-8 hour drive back to Dehradun. The return journey offers another chance to enjoy the scenic route. By late evening, you’ll arrive in Dehradun, ready for onward travel or a night’s rest in the city.
