Itinerary description

Churdhar partial trek, a day hike, to warm up for when it opens.

I like Churdhar trek because it is a gradual climb, is a mid altitude trek the can be done in a weekend from Delhi, offers decent views from the top, and is a teahouse trek.

This year (in 2017), the trail is still closed in April given the heavy snowfall. Tragically, a kid died on the trail and a few others were injured attempting the steep, snow-covered ascent. May they rest in peace and may other hikers be aware of their strengths and limitations when the risk presents itself.

Lot of clearing with great sunlight, water nearby, and is midway. Safe place to camp or just take a break.
