Thank you! Will do!

Yes, you can. The final stretch is a little steep but if someone has hill driving experience, no issues at all

Thank you!

Thanks! It was last year July - August 2023 Gopro 9 and drone + phone.

2nd week of January 2023

@@theridgelinestoriesNice.. I’m planning to book this trip of November 1st week. Whether will be cold or moderate in November ?

Starting of winter so you can expect cold mornings and nights but not as cold as peak winter.

@@theridgelinestories thank you

Welcome. Thanks for letting me know.

Thank you. Good to know. For seeing some snow usually January to March is a good option. I would recommend Jan end to Feb end because sometimes the snow comes in a little late.

Welcome! Have a good time.

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!

Thank you!

Yes, you can ride up to this place called Sandakphu. There is an offroad riding/driving trail (different route) to sandakphu and also almost up to phalut top. Many people love riding here too. You will be able to reach very near to Phalut top but the final point is only accessible by a short hike from there. Glad to know you found it inspiring.

@@theridgelinestories Thank you, that is very reassuring to know.

nahi. jammu se hai direct bus.

both

indeed!

Thanks! good to know!

Glad you liked it ! :)

Thank you! :D

At a homestay in Bhagsunag

I agree. What makes a place unique with good vibes is the people especially those who deal directly with travellers/tourists apart from the natural beauty. I felt much better during my second visit as I was already mentally prepared and knew exactly whom to ignore and whom to listen to.

This was with my phone in most of the shots. few gopro 9 too

@@theridgelinestories phone model ? Your video quality very nice. L like your video and I interested make a video

Hi, I do not have it personally. You may visit their website - indiahikes.com, and check any details including contact number/email. It is available.

Bilkul!! Good to know, Thank you! :D

:D

Thanks! very good to know. yes, I know. Had been a while. :)

It might be a good option if you prefer travelling with fixed itineraries.

Hi, these are probably the best commercial trek organizers in India that most people can think of choosing. Both had minor differences based on which some may like or dislike any of them. For example : Indiahikes will make 3 people sleep in a tent in most treks whereas, Trek The Himalayas has the option of 2 per tent. IH prepares a trekker (especially new) very nicely mentally right from the beginning few days before the trek. Which is good for beginners. TTH didn't give much importance to this so some people were not aware of what exactly camping is, what to expect, etc. Everything else is almost the same regarding safety, food, and other experiences. I personally like IndiaHikes for the overall approach from the beginning. They do not provide Trekking poles. You can rent it from them instead of buying it. You may buy if you wish to trek regularly.

@@theridgelinestories Thank u so much for your kind reply😇. Considering Sandakphu will be my first trek I think Indiahikes would be a better option. Your videos are wonderful😍 and so much informative, best wishes for your upcoming journeys✨

Welcome and thank you so much 😊 Goodluck for your first trek.

Yes, it can be done by camping. There are no hotels (except the peak point of Sandakphu area). what you see in the video are small tea houses at one or two places only. Rest you need to stay in a tent.

Haan, Jammu city ke liye bus available hai. Jammu se towards Srinagar share taxi me ja sakte hai.

Kitna price rehta hai from jammu to srinagar onwards​@@theridgelinestories

Had booked through Airbnb: www.airbnb.co.in/rooms/9403847?source_impression_id=p3_1710840101_pl%2FkNqVGk9RDWrnx This is the property

2nd week of January

Thank you. Glad. :)

yes, correct i got to know that. i was there for the second time. Didn't make a video. travelled from Jammu to pahalgam and Srinagar to pahalgam too later. in share taxi just like locals. Thanks for adding some light to this topic.

I haven't been to Har ki dun but I know people who have been to these two. Har ki dun will most probably be lush green with patches of white here and there in April (unless winter lasts long as it snowed late this year almost everywhere). It has a valley landscape in many parts and that is actually a great feeling to hike through. Sandakphu has views of some of the Highest Peaks in the world on a clear day. Also, Rhododendrons will be colourful on the way in some parts. So maybe you can decide based on this.
