Itinerary description

We started the trek at 3:30am early morning and were back down at Khireshvar at 1pm. First stop was taramati peak around sunrise time. It offers the best 360 degree view of the surrounding mountains. We descended to the other side and the path took us to mesmerising beauty of Kokankada. Then the temple. There is potable water here, we refilled our bottles and started our return journey. There is a bit of a rocky patch at the top of tolar khind. Nothing too difficult, one just has to be careful.

Please ignore the moving time. We were walking much of the time, except some watering and photography breaks. Didn’t even stop for a proper food break.

Not technically difficult. But endurance wise it is hard.

There is a sizeable rock patch between khind and the local top. Not too difficult, but one has to be careful
