There is a 12 kms jeepable road connecting Sankri with Taluka. If there is a blockage due to landslide in between then you must cover the remaining distance by trekking. This stretch is fairly easy and can be done in just 3 hr on foot. This trekking stretch won't tire you up but rather prepare your legs for the journey ahead. The trail enters the dense forest of chestnut, walnut, and chinars. Taluka village is situated at an altitude of 2,410 mts above sea level. The trekking route from Taluka to Seema stays on the right side of the Supin River.
While trekking you will come across a couple of alternative routes that lead to different Jaunsari villages, avoid them and stick to the trail. After trekking for 8kms you will see a village with wooden houses across the river, this is Ganga Village. It takes another 2 hours from this point to reach Seema. Night stay either at Seema or Poani Gharat.
After crossing Seema a giant bridge over the Supin River will greet you, cross it and climb a steep route until you reach a small bridge over a stream. This is a steep climb and it will take half an hour to one hour of your time. The trekking trail is visible for the next 4 km gradually ascending towards the left top over a vast expanse of a lush green meadow. After trekking for a couple of kilometers Debsu Thatch and Ruinsara Valley on the right side will open up. Kala Nag (Black Peak) and Banderpunch Range reveal itself.
After reaching Kalkati Dhar there will be a change in scenery and the trail will become less demanding. Night stay at Seematra campsite.
After early morning breakfast, we will start our trek for Har ki Dun. You will see the shepherds grazing their flock and several trekkers passing through. Since Har ki Dun region comes in Govind Ballabh Pant Wildlife Reserve, you will witness a wide variety of flora and fauna with passing this trail.
Soon the route opens up and Hata Peak becomes visible. Har ki Dun is situated at the foot of Hata Peak. There is a beautiful camping ground at Har ki Doon with a calm stream flowing in between. It is the best camping site you'll come across while trekking to Har ki Dun. Enjoy your packed lunch at Har ki Dun.
After lunch we will trek back to Seematra for night stay.
Descend on the trail towards Seema and cross the river for Debshu Bugyal before reaching Seema. After gradually climbing for 2 hours Debsu meadow comes into view. Debsu Bugyal is a beautiful meadow 2 kms in length but not that wide. Night stay at Rainbasera campsite.
After crossing Debsu Thatch you will have to cross a couple of wooden bridges over the gushing Ruinsara Gad. Ruinsara forest area is rich in vegetation but it keeps on receding as you climb up.
Ruinsaratal is one of the most scenic lakes of Garhwal Himalayas over looking lofty Himalayan peaks. Surrounded by birch trees, Ruinsara Tal (3630mts) makes a perfect campsite but this region is exposed to cold winds.
The lake is surrounded by bhojpatra trees which adds to the lake’s beauty. The trek to Ruinsara Tal from Rainbasera is a pleasant walk and not tiring. After reaching Ruinsara Tal you can further explore the region and return to campsite.
After breakfast, trek back to Taluka and thereon to Sankri Village. Night stay in Sankri Homestay.
Catch early morning bus/cab from Sankri to Dehradun. Our trek services will end in Sankri Village.

Why we prefer private and small groups? We love to trek in smaller private groups as we believe that it gives the best ambience to experience the Himalayan spirituality, serenity, solitude and rawness. Small groups are also eco friendly, less noisy, safe, friendly, easy to manage and more caring towards each other. Most importantly, private groups are more focused towards their objective which is to enjoy being in the nature. We specialize in arranging customized private groups catering to the specific needs.
