Trek from Lohajung to brown lake Bekaltal. The first day of trekking starts from Lohajung to Bekaltal campsite. After breakfast leave towards Bekalatal by trekking to a coniferous forest of Oak and Firs. The trek concludes at the Bekalatal Campsite after 4 to 5 hours. You will stay overnight here in twin-sharing camps. 2 hours into your trek, you will come across the next landmark, a 10 m-long wooden bridge that runs over a stream. You can ration water at this water source. 20 minutes of further walking brings you to Gujreni and you will spot two streams here. The Bekaltal lake is 15 minutes away from our campsite. Once the tents are set up, you can refresh and head to the lake in the evening. The Lake is surrounded by a dense cluster of Oak trees and the lake water remains brown all year round. After watching a beautiful sunset from Bekaltal, head back to your camps where dinner awaits you at night. After dinner, sleep comfortably in your tent.

Trek from Bekaltal to Brahmatal. It's a 7 km long trek today that will take you to Brahmatal. Start your day with a glorious sunrise view at Bekalatal and after a hot and savory breakfast at the campsite, get ready to trek towards Brahmatal Lake. It is a steep climb through covers of Oak and Rhododendrons, which slowly softens into a gradual ascent making the trek a little easier. The trail gradually descends until you reach the Brahmatal campsite. On reaching the campsite area, we will pitch the tents and you can go for a scenic walk by the Brahmatal Lake. Brahmatal Lake is 500 m away from the campsite. Spending some time at the Lake, head back to the campsite area, and post-lunch retire in your tents. The night temperature can drop really low here, as low as -7 degrees during the winter. So it is recommended that you dress warmly and appropriately according to the weather.

Trek from Brahmatal to Daldum via Brahmatal Pass Get ready to reach the highest point on your trek today, the Brahmatal Pass. We will trek to the pass and descend to our campsite in Daldum. Walking through a mountain ridge, it takes about 2.5 hours to reach Brahmatal Pass. The highest point on the Pass unfolds exotic views of snow-covered mountains. Relishing the view, we will move towards the Daldum campsite. From this point, it is a downward trek to Daldum, which takes about 3 hours. The trail slowly retires into the valley below. This part of the trek is also covered with a forest of Oak and Rhododendrons. At the Daldum campsite, you will enjoy a delectable dinner before you retire to your tents.

Descending to Lohajung. From Daldum take the trail on the left to reach Lohajung. It's a short trek of 4 km and takes about 3 to 4 hrs. The descent to Lohajung takes place along a well-marked trail crossing a few streams and again through the forest cover of Oak and Rhododendrons that you came along. It's the same path that you came in initially. Once you reach Lohajung, you can freshen up at the guesthouse and in the evening explore the settlement. The sunset from Lohajung is quite impressive. Enjoy a nice sunset here and also head to the local market if you want to buy yourself a souvenir from the trip. Dinner will be served at the guesthouse along with a good night's sleep.

Returning to Rishikesh or Dehradun. Dehradun is 268 km away from Lohajung and it approximately takes 9 hours to drive back.
