Dayara Bugyal Trek in November
Weather, temperatures, packing and honest advice — from the team that runs this trail.
The quick answer
November is a shoulder month for Dayara Bugyal. The core season is Dec, Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, so conditions can work with the right preparation — but check with our team about your specific dates. The trek runs 4 days from Raithal, Uttarkashi, reaching 12,100 ft at its highest point, and is graded Easy (1/5). The fee is ₹5,500 + 5% GST with permits, meals, camping and certified trek leaders included.
Why this window works: December to April turns the meadows into a snowfield perfect for families; May–June brings back rolling green with wildflowers — both faces of the bugyal are beautiful. November sits at the edge of this window, so conditions vary year to year — check with our team for your dates.
Weather & trail conditions in November
The monsoon washes the sky clean, leaving the sharpest mountain views of the year. Trails are dry, rivers settle down, and nights get progressively colder as winter approaches. On Dayara Bugyal, expect daytime temperatures around 10°C on the trail and roughly -4°C at the highest camps after dark in November.
