Obra Gad Trek is a lesser-known trek in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, India. The trek takes you through dense forests, alpine meadows, and scenic waterfalls, culminating in a breathtaking view of the Obra Gad Valley. The trek is a 7-day, 6-night adventure that will take you to an altitude of 4000 meters above sea level.
The trek starts from Dehradun, the capital city of Uttarakhand. From Dehradun, you will be driven to Sankri, which is the base camp for the Obra Gad Trek. The drive takes around 8-9 hours and covers a distance of 220 km. On the way, you will pass through scenic villages, waterfalls, and dense forests.
After breakfast, the trek begins from Sankri. The first day of the trek is a gradual ascent through a beautiful pine forest. The trail is well-defined and easy to follow. You will pass through scenic villages and lush green meadows before reaching the campsite at Taluka.
The third day of the trek is a gradual ascent through dense forests and beautiful meadows. The trail passes through several small streams and waterfalls before reaching the campsite at Seema.
The fourth day of the trek is a steep ascent through a dense forest. The trail becomes steeper as you climb higher and the climb can be quite challenging. You will pass through beautiful meadows and streams before reaching the campsite at Ruinsara Tal.
The fifth day of the trek is a steep climb through rocky terrain. The trail passes through beautiful meadows and streams before reaching the campsite at Odari.
The sixth day of the trek is the most challenging and rewarding. The trail passes through a steep and rocky terrain, and the climb can be quite difficult. You will pass through dense forests, meadows, and streams before reaching the stunning Obra Gad Valley. The valley is surrounded by snow-capped peaks and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.
The final day of the trek is a descent back to Sankri. The trail follows the same route as the ascent and takes around 6-7 hours. From Sankri, you will be driven back to Dehradun.
