The season we opted was extended winters,,, The Team Leaders we choose were Locals... The group we got was more awsum than us... Inevitably, we gotta WIN WIN combo - and results were stunning, mind blowing, worth re-living, cherishing forever, in short... You Must Better Experience it!!! Day1: So here we go... Dehradun being the closest airport was chosen... a day spent there around Auspicious Ganga River and Haridwar - Rishikesh. Next day early morning, Scorpio arrived, we took 7 hours en route Mussoorie, arrived at Sankri - a base camp for Kedarkantha and Har ki Dun Treks. We stayed in basic 2 floor hotel, best what we seen around... Day 2: After Sankri, you loose all connectivity with material world... Firstly Mobile range, then full coverage electricity... and convenient motor-able roads too... Now, you suit yourself like localities do... So, Next day Early Morning, Sumo Jeep took us off riding till Taluk in 1.30 hours... Hereon, a Real Trail Starts. You would find many enthu trekkers starting here, and you keep meeting them enroute, depending your speed and haults. En route, you pass through small villages like Datmir, Gangad.. and end your day at Seema... Off course not without unforgettable and inevitable local dhaba (Food Joints) breaks. On this route through Deep Pine and Chinar Trees, Supin River flows to your left - almost through-out - talking with you - telling you the stories of the Mountain Caps that you are seeing... But.. hiding the climax. Day 3: Already tasted long 12/14 kms yesterday, gear yourself for the tougher one now.. A team of 5-6 working throughout, always encouraging us, telling us about their local cultures, sometimes carrying our bags, apart from lifting full campsite and foods and medicines and backups and what not, offcourse, Khacchars (Donkey+Horse Combo) shares much more loads, but just could speak. So, this trail, mostly steep, starts showing you Himalayan Range. By now, snow caps becomes snow laden full scoop and some snow comes to your feet... Leaving behind Osla Village somewhere on your Left sky, you end up on a plato known as Kalkatiya Dhar... You are provided a much needed hot food and sleeping bag... and you realise - you require nothing beyond. Everything else is Maayaa!!! hehehe!!! Day 4: Charge your Mobile n Cameras fully, you cant afford to miss a masterpiece, wont you? Every turn opens up a new canvas, every break gives you sense of your breath and existence... Here, You start realizing your limitations... Here is the time to start thinking... within yourself... Welcome to Land of Gods!!! Very soon, you start walking in 1 feet deep snow, climb up n down, cross frozen river, then walking beside her, this last one is a dream stretch... this 1 hour is unforgettable. Now you start seeing a innocent and purest soul - A Shiv Ling. That's where your final destination is. To take a kings stone type rock and face towards Swarga Rohini and the Valley Down. This is Breath Taking... Beyond Imagination... Completely Divine... Makes you spell bound... You are Closest to yourself - if not here, then no where else. Murmure whatever with closed eyes - you would hear it as noise... Its that class Nirvanaa prevails here. Trust me, you needs to be destined to visit here. Well, Govt has stopped night stays here so we returned back to Kalkatiya Dhar - with extreme affection towards what we gonna cherish throughout our life. Day 5: Its not a round trek, so Arrangers just takes us through different routes to keep us going... But, story doesnt end here. We got a bonus. We got a rare chance to visit OSLA and Pouniya Village and be a part of their local rituals - these villagers claims to be ancestors of Pandavas and we were super happy to see there contentment in smallest things. It was so adhoc and smoother... Har ki Dun can not complete without you visiting and helping these pure heart villagers. We spend a night here. Day 6: Having got much more than what we desire, we rush back straight to Dehradun, mind it - you need to reach Sankri before 12am to achieve this. And back home next day noon. Note - 1. Dehradun to Sankri Travels costs more than Entire Trek Costs, and i found it completely unjustifiable. 2. Try Locals, give them more because they really really gets less, i have verified the facts. 3. Its Amaeture Trek, So a Must Do for a Himalayan Starter. For others, its a leisure trip, nothing too hard. More than a Review, i just penned my feelings friends. You need any help on this, i would love to assist with the Best teams i know there.

The view of those long pine trees from the golf ground is just mesmerizing. It is like a picnic spot with a large open area. Children would love this place as there is a lot of open space for them to play. You may carry a football/volley ball when you visit there as well as some snacks and drinks for refreshment as you won't find anything there in 1-2 km radius.
