Hi Abhiram. In January, a visit to Nathula Pass will rely heavily on the prevailing snowfall conditions. Road to Nathula may get blocked due to snowfall. You can check that after reaching Gangtok. If the road is blocked, permit for Nathula would not be issued. In that case you may go for Tsomgo Lake - Baba Mandir trip. Hope this helps.

Hello Venkatesh, Distance between Dehradun to Auli by road is 160 km which calculates up to 5 hours (approx.) journey. You can easily take a shared transfer facility from Dehradun to Auli from various taxi stands and railway stations. A rental car is the best option for comfortable travelling. Various private rental taxi providers operate taxis from Dehradun to Auli starting from ₹11.5 per km onward.
I hope you find this information useful. Thanks.

Hi Sambhaji The best hack for food while camping is to carry plenty of frozen meals or meals which only need hot water to be cooked. If you're not a fan of pre-cooked meals, carry food which is not easily perishable. Canned food, bread, jars of jam, trail mix are not easily perishable and can be carried. If you must cook food, carry aluminium foil. You can wrap food items such as fish or vegetables in the foil and put them in the campfire to be cooked. You can buy vegetables or frozen meat when you make pit stops. There are lots of camping stoves available which you can buy. A good camp stove will be windproof with a strong adjustable flame as well as portable. You can carry a light aluminium pot which will enable you to cook most things while keeping your load light. Do remember to clean up after you're done and pick up all your waste before you leave. I hope this helps!

Hi George. Generally, most of the guided treks in Nanda Devi National Park take atleast 1-2 days. You can join the six days/five night interpretive trek to the Nanda Devi National Park in collaboration with the Nanda Devi Institute of Adventure Sports and Outdoor Education. This will give you a comprehensive tour of the everything that is to be seen in the national park.
If you're looking to visit only for a day, you can stay in Joshimath and visit the park as a day trip. Here are some trips you can check out to know about all your options! Good luck!

It depends on the place you are visiting. If you are travelling solo, it will be bit difficult to find cheap accommodation. If you are travelling with friends, you can easily split the cost. In both Paro and Thimpu, you can find a double sharing room for 1200Rs. In Paro, I stayed in Phunsum hotel for 1200Rs(double sharing, so the effective price is 600 per night). Booking.com is a good place to find affordable rooms.
