I travel to find the reason why do I travel.
In order to collect the memories, we started our journey to Dyara Bugyal from my hometown Barkot. Most of the travellers start their trek from Barshu village and ends at Raithal village. But we started our trek from Raithal village.
It was the end week of June and greenery was all around which makes the view of nature even more beautiful. As we were moving forward clouds were getting closer to us. After the breathtaking 5kms climb, crossing dense forests and long green fields, we reached Goi village, where we actually feel like we are inside the cloud, Fogg was so dense even flash lite of our mobile phone couldn't help us. So we decided to halt until the way become visible. And after trekking 3kms from Goi we finally reached the place where wi-fi and mobile signals were weak, no noise of the horns and vehicle, no human interference.
A long green meadow situated at 10,000-12,000 feet altitude Dayara Bugyal is considered as one of the most beautiful meadows of India. Also, the hike is breathtaking, 8kms of steep climb made it a little bit difficult but when you will reach Dyara you will find worth it. Dyara Bugyal is an ideal trek for beginners.
Next day morning the chirping of birds(the real one, not twitter) woke us up, we were surrounded by the mighty Himalayan peaks(Srikanth, Rudregaira, Gangotri I, II & III, Jaonli, Draupadi ka Danda I & II, Black peak, Bandarpunch and many other unnamed peaks) from three sides and on the fourth side as far as we can see, the long field of green grass was visible. Bakaria top is the highest point of Dyara Bugyal. We started our trek to Bakaria top early in the morning around 6 am by the time of breakfast we were back to the camps. Sunrise view from Bakaria top was the best part of the trek. The place was so peaceful that we can easily hear the sound of wind blowing.
"Peace also has its own sound which can only be heard in the peace."
The chirping of birds was way more peaceful than the sound of the horn. The view of unfolding long green meadow and all mighty peaks of Himalaya was very relaxing for the traveller's eye. After having breakfast we started our journey back to Raithal village. There was a beautiful small lake at Goi village which we couldn't see while trekking to Dyara because of dense fog or we could say cloud. Dyara is a perfect weekend trip for travellers. and from travellers eye, we can say its a perfect weekend trek to get a restart, you don't need any extra trekking skills to reach Dyara which make it suitable for the beginners.
