Dayara Bugyal — The Lush Meadows of Uttarakhand

Nestled in the Uttarkashi district of Uttarakhand, Dayara Bugyal is one of the most stunning summer and monsoon treks in the Indian Himalayas. Known for its vast green meadows, alpine flora, and panoramic Himalayan views, this trek offers the perfect blend of adventure and serene nature walks for trekkers and nature enthusiasts.

Spread across an altitude of 3,360 to 3,660 meters, Dayara Bugyal is often called the “Carpet of the Himalayas” for its expansive grassy slopes. The journey starts from Ladwari or Osla village, passing through dense oak, deodar, and rhododendron forests, eventually opening into lush meadows filled with wildflowers during spring and summer.
