If you like Sankri, you might also enjoy these destinations.
A chaotic but charming trekker hub with basic amenities. Expect early morning hustle as groups leave for summits, homestays serving hot Pahadi food, zero ATMs, and very patchy mobile networks. It's all about the mountain vibe, gear rental shops, and raw Himalayan beauty.
Fly to Jolly Grant Airport (Dehradun) or take a train to Dehradun. From Dehradun railway station, board a shared Bolero/Maxx or a local Uttarakhand Roadways bus at 5:30 AM to Sankri. The journey is about 200 km and takes 8-10 hours. Private cabs will cost between ₹6,000 and ₹8,000.
Eat where the local trek leaders and guides eat. The small wooden dhabas near the GMVN guest house serve the hottest, most authentic, and budget-friendly meals.

Tucked away at 6,400 feet in the Uttarkashi district of Uttarakhand, Sankri isn't just a picturesque mountain village—it's the undisputed trekking capital of the region. Whether you're booking a Kedarkantha group tour to experience magical winter snow or planning a summer expedition to Har Ki Dun and the Phulara Ridge, every major trail starts right here. Traveling to Sankri with a group is highly recommended, not just for the shared camaraderie around a freezing evening bonfire, but for logistical ease.

You’ll stay in authentic Garhwali wooden homestays, acclimatize safely, and connect with like-minded adventurers from across India. Remember, Sankri is about raw, unfiltered mountain life—expect patchy mobile networks, basic amenities, and zero ATMs. But if you're a young traveler seeking a genuine digital detox, breathtaking views of the Swargarohini peaks, and the thrill of a Himalayan summit, a Sankri trekking package is an absolute must-do.
