Why Dodital Is A Must-Do Trek?

A hidden paradise in the lap of the Uttarakhand Himalayas, Dodital is one of the most beautiful high-altitude lakes in the northern part of India. The emerald lake nestles in the lap of the mighty mountains and offers a very serene tranquil environment. The lake derived its name from the Himalayan trout that are locally known as Dodi. It is one of those rare lakes where you can find Himalayan trout.

 

It is a 22 km trek from Sangamchatti and is an easy trek that becomes moderate if you also include the Darwa Pass. From Darwa Pass, you can see a wide range of Himalayan mountains. The Dodital Lake is 1.5 km in circumference and is surrounded by Deodar trees all around. There is a temple located on the corner of the lake dedicated to Lord Ganesha. According to the legends, it is said that Lord Ganesha was born in this place.

 

For bird lovers, Dodital Lake is a great place to spot avian species like Bush Robin, Tailor Bird, Grey Shrike, Pink Finch, Himalayan Whistling Thrush, Common Chiffchaff, Himalayan Tree Pie, and Himalayan Monal. This lake trek is a great choice for both trekking enthusiasts and nature lovers. The easy grade of the trek makes it suitable for anyone who wishes to venture into the world of trekking in the Himalayas.

 

About the trek

Located 3310 m above sea level, Dodital Trek is a great option for beginners as well as seasoned trekkers. If you are planning to start on your trekking journey, Dodital Trek is a great place to start. The trek starts from the quaint hamlet of Sangamchatti, which is located near Uttarkashi.

 

From Sangamchatti, we will trek to the beautiful campsite at Bebra passing by the lovely settlement at Agoda. You will trek through a mixed forest with the Asi Ganga River flowing below. On Day 3, we trek from Bebra to Manjhi campsite followed by a trek to Dodital Lake the next day. Camping by the lakeside, we will head to Darwa Top the next day and return to Dodital.

 

The next day, we will trek through dense forests and meadows to Darwa Pass, a high vantage point from where you see stunning views of the Dhauladar Range and other Greater Himalayan Ranges.

 

What can you expect at the trek?

Dodital Trek is an easy to moderate grade trek that takes you to a maximum altitude of 4200 meters at Darwa Top. Although it is an easy-grade trek, it is 22 km long and it is best to prepare for the trek a month before you go on the trek. The trekking trail goes along the Asi Ganga River, which originates from Dodital Lake. The trek presents distinctly beautiful landscapes at all times of the year.  During the summer months, it is green and vibrant in colors and that is also a good time for birdwatching and recreational activities like boating, angling, etc. During winter, the trek turns into a winter wonderland, with the beautiful snow-covered coniferous forests, and snow-covered ridges. The knee-deep snow makes the trek quite difficult, however, the views that you get are worth the climb.

 

The temperature in Dodital in summer lies between 10°C to 18°C and in winter it drops between -5°C to -10°C. On your way, you will cross the villages of Agoda, Bebra, and the summer-monsoon settlement at Manjhi. The walk to Dodital is fairly easy, you will walk along grasslands on the mountain slopes, locate remote villages, camp in the wilderness, and savor the beauty of the trek.

 

Though the trail is steep at places, the overall altitude is not so high, with an ample amount of oxygen in the air due to the forests, anyone can savor the beauty of this trek and the chances of AMS are also pretty low.

Itinerary

Day 1 : Arrive At Uttarkashi
    • Drive Distance: 140 km approx. | Duration: 5 to 6 hrs
    • Stay: in the hotel

The trek starts from a small village called Sangamchatti which is about 12 km away from Uttarkashi. Today, you will drive from Dehradun to Uttarkashi. We will pick you up from the designated point and drive to Uttarkashi, which is about 140 km away from Dehradun. It takes about 5 to 6 hrs to reach the destination. The drive is long and goes through twists and turns on the Himalayan roads passing through forests and many religious temples.

 

Uttarkashi is a religious town located on the banks of the River Bhagirathi and is also home to the NIM Mountaineering Institue. It is popular for its rich cultural heritage and immense natural abundance. Sweeping mountain views, decorate the town on all sides. The entire town is lined with many temples and holy places. The Vishwanath temple is the most popular here and is located in the center of the town. It is one of the oldest temples of Lord Shiva. The entire temple is a huge site that comprises other shrines of Markandeya Rishi, Ganpati, and Sakshi Gopal. While you are at the premises take full advantage of the Akhand Abhishek and Akhand Jyoti. They are of prime importance and bring happiness.

 

An interesting thing that you will observe at Vishwanath Temple is that the Shivalingam is almost 56 cm in height and there’s a slight tilt in the southwards direction. There’s also a Nandi Statue outside the temple. When in Uttarkashi also visit other notable temples like Markandey Rishi, Kuteti Devi, Sakshi Gopal, Gopeshwar Mahadev, Koteshwar Mahadev, and Sakshi Gopal Temple.

 

Apart from pilgrim spots and temples, Uttarkashi is also a hub for all adventure lovers as it serves as the base for many popular treks like Dyara Bugyal Trek, Kedartal Trek, Sartal Trek, Har Ki Dun Trek, etc. Uttarkashi has a considerably big market, so if you want to withdraw any cash from ATM or buy some last-minute miscellaneous stuff for the trek. We will stay the night in a hotel at Uttarkashi and continue on our journey the next day.

The winding trail takes you through beautiful green landscapes, which are covered in snow in winter. About 5 km into the trek you will arrive at the village of Agoda. From here you can see Bakra Top and Dayara Bugyal in the distance. The trail from Agoda to Bebra is not very steep compared to the one from Sangamchatti to Agoda. From Agoda, it is a downhill route to Bebra as Bebra is located in a valley. The trail to Bebra is dotted with tea shacks, so you can stop and re-energize yourself if you ever feel like it. You can expect to reach Bebra by early evening. 

 

Bebra is an idyllic village sitting near a gushing stream and green fields all around. You can spot local farmlands of potatoes, beans, and Rajma here. We will pitch up our tents here.

    • Altitude: 9,433 m
    • Trek Distance: 9 km | Duration: 4 to 5 hrs

Get excited as today you will trek to Dodital Lake. Dodital Lake is situated at an altitude of 10,900 ft and it is located approximately 6 km away from the Manjhi campsite. If you are going in winter, the trail will be covered in snow and the lake will be frozen, however, the trek will be fairly easy.

 

The lake is situated in such a picturesque location that it is a true delight for all nature lovers as well as photographers. The view of Dodital Lake begins to up as you inch closer to the end of the trail. When you get the first view of the lake, surrounded by the snow-covered mountain peaks, the image stays in your mind forever. The vast expanse of the mountains and the tranquil environs of the lake will fill you with a sense of peace and fulfillment - a perfect remedy for your tired soul.

 

Tonight we will camp near the lakeside and on a clear day, you can see a canopy of stars up above at night. You will reach Dodital by afternoon and thus you will have ample time to explore the surroundings of the lake. You can also visit the Ganpati Temple located at the corner of the lake.

    • Altitude: 13,300 ft
    • Trek Distance: 5 km (each side) | Duration: 7 to 8 hrs
    • Stay: in tents (twin-sharing)

Wake up to a beautiful view of the lake and that of the Bandarpoonch Massif. Today, we will trek to Darwa Pass, which is situated at an altitude of 13,300 ft and opens up a panorama of mighty Himalayan peaks.  We will start early in the morning. It’s a 5 km steep hike to Darwa Top.

 

The initial part of the trek is quite beautiful and is dotted with Rhododendron trees. As you keep gaining altitude towards the summit, the tree line starts to fade away slowly and mountain views begin to open up. The last leg of the trek is particularly difficult as you have to trudge on a steep and long trail. But once you reach the top, you will realize that the climb was totally worth it with the rewarding views ahead. From Darwa Top you can clearly see the Bandarpoonch Massif and some other peaks of the Greater Himalayas including Draupadi Ka Danda (5,600m), Srikanta (6,140 m), Jaonli (6,000 m), Kala Nag (6,387 m), and Swargarohini group (6,200 m).

 

After spending some time at the top and relishing the views, we return to Dodital Lake. In winter, it is not possible to go beyond Dodital so often we return from Dodital instead of moving ahead to Darwa Pass. You will be served delicious snacks on reaching the campsite and a sumptuous dinner at night. Overnight stay will be in camps beside the Dodital Lake.

Day 6 : Trek From Dodital To Sangamchatti And Drive Back To Uttarkashi

These circumstances could include continuous rain or snow, thunderstorms, snowstorms, landslides, floods, earthquakes, or any other natural calamity that poses a risk to the safety of our trekkers. Additionally, unforeseeable events such as local riots, curfews, pandemics, lockdowns, government orders, or any similar situations that compromise the safety of the trekking experience may also necessitate a cancellation.

In such cases, the provision of a voucher does not apply.

 

In the rare event that TTH shifts a trek:

We would like to emphasize that weather conditions in high-altitude areas are highly unpredictable and can undergo sudden changes at any time, irrespective of the day. Additionally, circumstances beyond our control, such as natural disasters, political unrest, pandemics, and lockdowns, may impact the feasibility of conducting a trek. In cases where we are unable to proceed with an event due to such circumstances that are beyond our direct control, we will make every effort to provide you with an alternative trek that is safer and more suitable.

In such situations, we will issue a voucher to offset the cost difference between the originally scheduled trek and the alternative trek.
