Spend the night at Camp Kuflon

Depart for Bevra - the walk is 8 kms (4-5 hrs) of which 2 kms is on the road along the Assi Ganga stream. Bevra is a camping spot, 1.5 kms ahead of Agoda village. A dip in the stream in Bevra is the best way to wash out the first day body aches.

Stay overnight in campsite

After an early morning breakfast, we commence the trek to Dodital, with packed lunch. The walk is gradual, and takes you through the rhododendron and oak trees that dot the trek, as well as an occasional seabuckthorn bush. There is no habitation beyond Bevra except for the shepherd shelter in Majhi. Dodital, at 10,000 ft is a freshwater lake amidst a thick jungle. The brown trout in the lake add to the feel of being completely immersed in nature

Sleep in tents

The walk to Darwa Pass is about 5 kms. The entire walk is an uphill climb. It starts with the climb along the feeder to Dodital, breaking into a thick birch forest opening into the high meadows. The pass at 4150 m offers an amphitheatre view of the Bandarpunch range of peaks. The more adventurous climbers can go higher up to climb the Darwa Top and the rest can proceed to camp at Kanasar (3900m) just below the pass. Overnight in camp.
