Snow Hike from Khajjiar to Dainkund Peak Dalhousie

Dainkund Peak is the highest peak near Dalhousie and is easily reachable from Dalhousie side with a 1.5 km hike from the road end. But in winters when the road above Dalhousie close due to snow then it becomes a very long hike as you also need to cover the 13 kms road distance by foot. So in this video I’ve shown a shortcut to reach Dainkund Peak easily even when the road is closed. This shortcut starts from 6 kms from Khajjiar and this 6 kms of road mostly opens within 2-3 days of fresh snowfall so you can reach here by vehicle if you don’t wanna hike those 6 kms on road. And from that point you’ll reach Dainkund Peak in max of 2 hrs. So if you’re hiking from Khajjiar lake you’ll reach at Dainkund Peak in just 3-4 hrs with a normal speed. So you’ll have more time to spend on top and enjoy the views there and you’ll get back to Khajjiar timely. I hope this video will be helpful for you guys. Have fun ! Happy winters! ☃️
