Bali Pass is a mountain pass that peaks slightly short of 5000 meters mark, and connects the Har Ki Dun - Ruinsara Valley to Yamunotri and vice-versa. The trek runs through numerous heritage Villages of Har Ki Dun valley such as Osla, Gangaad, Taluka and ascends deep into the Govind National Park. On the route we come across the beautiful Ruinsara Lake. Multiple Waterfalls lie on the way to the pass. Why do we seek adventures in the mountains? Perhaps because mountains are the best teachers. Smooth roads, cosy homes and excellent network connectivity will not make you realize what you are really capable of, but difficult and rarely trodden terrains of the mountains will challenge your strength, elevate your courage and reward you with their breathtakingly beautiful landscapes. If you are an avid trekker, and love to explore offbeat treks, Bali Pass is just the right trek route for you. It is one of the high passes in Uttarakhand that will give you the best taste of adventure. Take up this journey and be ready for one of the rarest trekking experiences in the Himalayas. Day 1: Our journey begins from Dehradun. In around 7 hours we reach Sankri through the picturesque villages of Damta, Purola, Mori and Netwar. Sankri is a little hamlet in the lap of lush green Himalayas and the source of many trek routes such as Har Ki Dun and Kedarkantha. Our route passes through Govind Pashu Vihar National Park, which is a sanctuary for many of the endangered species of animals and a variety of medicinal plants. At Sankri you can set up your camp, or stay at a guest house. Day 2:Early in the morning, after having our breakfast, we drive off for Taluka. Taluka is another small village with a cluster of little houses made of wood, stone and mud, located only 12 kilometers away from Sankri. The road to Taluka is a bit bumpy, and it takes around one hour to reach Taluka. From Taluka, our trek begins along the stony path, amidst the tall pines and walnut trees, with the river flowing beside us. Passers by will smile and wave at you. The walk will remind you of the song ‘What a wonderful world’. By the time we reach the village of Osla, our life back in the plains seems to be a distant story. You can camp at Seema, a small settlement opposite to Osla, or you can stay with the people of the village for the night in their houses, listening to the tales of the Himalayas from their mouths. Day 3:We have a long hike on the third day, but it unfolds delightful surprises. We will continue our journey beside the Tons river. The path sometimes ascends and sometimes descends through hills and valleys and forests. Sometimes you will feel you are losing your patience. The path goes on and on, and yet your destination is not in sight. In those moments, remind yourself that in the mountains there is no quick and easy path to achieve great heights, and it is the journey that transforms you.
