8 Days Dronagiri and Bagini Glacier Trek Tour

Package Overview

Funfacts
1) You cant praise lord hanumans name in village.
2) Hanuman is a bad guy here. The monkey god has still not been forgiven by the guardians of the holy mountain for destroying the right flank of the mountain (Parbat Dev) that they worship
3) When Hanuman flew in to find the Sanjivani plant to revive his lord’s younger brother, he was not able to locate it Since time was running out and Lakshman was near death, Hanuman disguised himself as a sadhu and begged an elderly woman in the village to help him locate the magic mountain where the herb grew.The woman was moved by his plea and pointed out the carefully covered up area to the intruder, who then proceeded to disfigure the mountain and carried away half of it along with the magic plant.The old woman was subsequently banished from the village and all women were then barred from the ritual worship of the mountain.
4) Since Hanuman dared destroy a hillside, temples in the area even today refuse to house an idol of the monkey god. At the formal celebration of Jagar in the village, when the spirit of the Dev Parbat (holy mountain) appears in the body of a medium (known as pashuwa) amid the chanting of prayers, the right arm of the medium, which is symbolic of the right flank of the Drongiri hill, hangs limp and lifeless till the spirit of the Dev Parbat departs.
5)At the annual staging of a three-day Ramlila in the area too, all references to Hanuman have been expunged for centuries. the Ramlila in this village still begins with Ram’s childhood, moves on to his wedding to Sita following a swayamvar and ends with his coronation.

Laata along the Dhuali River. The trail starts with a steel suspension bridge over the Dhauliganga after which the ascent of Ruing begins. The road to Ruing is mildly steep through the forest. It’s about 3 kms from Jumma to Ruing and won't take more than 1 hours. The place has two distinct advantages, one you get closer to Dronagiri and it would be easy for you to negotiate the herculean climb through the landslide and second this place has a nearby stream so a good natural place to camp.

The trail is dusty, steeply inclined at an angle of 60° to 70º to the horizontal and full of mud slides, small streams crisscrossing your path, while you take your tired body surely and slowly to the top. Once you reach there, a cemented pavement awaits in silent anticipation to take you to the Village. The scene is straight out from a Swiss alpine landscape. The horizon is dotted with the snow laden peaks of Hathi Parvat, Ghori Parvat. If its summer, flowers will be in full blossom. For once you forget this is not a trek but a walk in the Swiss alps.
