    Dayara Bugyal Trek

    This scenic 6-day trek to Dayara Bugyal offers you a wide range of experiences including serene campsites, lush trails, astounding mountain views as well as some insight into the local culture. The trek to Dayara Bugyal is very easy trek but has big payoffs in terms of mountain views. You'll get to explore rolling Himalayan meadows with iconic peaks towering over you, and hang out with local shepherds as they graze their flocks on the sweet grass here.
