Dayara Bugyal was covered in a few centimetres of snow after the first snowfall of the season on 29th and 30th December. 

“Most of the snow at Dayara Bugyal will remain due to low temperatures”, says Trek Leader Diptarka Gupta, noting that it is currently very cold with temperatures dropping to -10°C. 

Trekkers must be ready for anything: Proper planning is crucial for winter treks, especially in the face of extreme conditions.

He says, “As of January 3rd, Dayara Bugyal is experiencing mostly clear and sunny weather, with no immediate snowfall in sight.”

However, if you're planning a trek to Dayara Bugyal in the coming weeks, be ready for snow – January and February are the snowiest months there.
