Nainital and Chamoli Tour Itinerary
The exhilarating Brahmatal trek starts from the base camp at Lohajung. Lohajung is around 8-10 hours away from Kathgodam. Thus, in order to reach the proposed destination on time, reach Kathgodam as early as 7 am. Drive from Kathgodam to Lohajung is a beautiful one as many locations like Bhimtal, Almora, Baijnath and Kausani.
If you wish, you can halt at Kausani to admire the beautiful Himalayan mountain ranges in its background. Various high altitude peaks like Trishul, Maiktoli, Nanda Devi, Ghori Parvat, Nanda Khat, Hathi Parvat and Ghori Parvat are visible from the heights of Kasauni. As you will reach Kathgodam, make a check-in to a guest house for an overnight stay.
Trekking from Lohajung begins on a well-marked stone trail. The upper regions of Lohajung are dominated by forest surroundings that have few houses lined up in a row. First in the list of places that would be coming on your trek is Mandoli village. As you will pass it, climb higher and reach Kail valley. This beautiful valley is a result of the confluence of Pindari and Kail rivers. Coming next is Budla, which have an alignment of rhododendron trees built all around the homes.
On climbing close to 2590 meters, a 10 meter bridge, known as Linkgaad would be coming your way. After that, you will reach Begum. It is highly advised you make a stoppage at Begum for some time. From here, you can enjoy the scenic beauty of Navali Bugyal. As your tiredness gets worn off, start with the trekking again. After walking for 10-15 minutes, you will come across another stream.
