Har Ki Dun
Discover the wild nature
Trekkers think when it comes to great treks you can’t beat treks like Rupin Pass or Buran Ghati. And when we talk about Har Ki Dun with Ruinsara, they think it is a poor cousin. That’s making a big mistake. The Har Ki Dun trek with Ruinsara is one of the best complete treks that we have seen. It has terrific ancient culture, mountain views, forests, grasslands, meadows, rivers, streams and even an alpine lake. This trail is not difficult on the legs which makes it just the right adventure especially when compared to other summer treks. With Ruinsara added on Har Ki Dun, a good trek becomes great. One of the most complete treks that you will possibly do

You never hear trekkers talk about any campsite on the Har Ki Dun trek. Like everyone else, I assumed Kalkatiyadhar to either be a small settlement or just beside it. Quite contrary to my expectations, Kalkatiyadhar turned out to be a vast green meadow. What blew me away was the expanse of the valley. We were in the middle of multi level cricket-field-sized meadows, set at a vantage height.
A lot has been said everywhere about the ancient villages of Har Ki Dun. You spot these villages from a distance, spread out on the mountain side, with houses almost hanging in the air. I could not wait to climb up to them and see what the interiors looked like. Spending a night in the village home takes you back hundreds of years. The stories of the village elders and the smiles of the youngsters are something that you want to capture and take back with you. The villages complete the famed Har Ki Dun experience. On our trek, you get to stay in at least two different villages – Gangad and Osla.
Description Trek
Har Ki Dun valley and Ruinsara Tal are the two valleys which this trek celebrates. Very rightfully, these are amongst the most beautiful sections of the trek. I loved the expanse of the Har Ki Dun valley. The valley has everything going for it. Big snow clad mountains towering right in front of you. A big river flowing right in the middle. Lovely green meadows stretching far and wide. I could sit there and just take in this scene the whole day. Ruinsara Tal on the other hand feels like a far away world. The isolation grips you. It’s just you, the mountains and the lake. Looking at the mountains reflecting in the clear blue lake had a big calming effect on me. For me, Ruinsara Tal was like reaching the pinnacle of a trek even though there was no real summit.
