Day 2 - Lohajung to Bekaltal (4-5hrs)

The pathway to Lohajung's higher section is a well-marked, stone-paved path. Pass through a wooded area with residences on the outskirts. After a short distance, you will reach the settlement of Mandoli. After climbing, enter the Kail valley, which is fed by the Pindari and Kail rivers. Water pipelines that bring water to Lohajung may be seen ahead. Stop for a while and continue trekking; you will now see several buildings together with Rhododendron trees that are collectively known as Budla. Begum is reached after crossing a creek and passing via a bridge. The Navali Bugyal will seize your attention up ahead. You will reach “Gujrani” after crossing one more stream and ascending for an hour. There are many streams in this region, the water is pure and clean, and you can refill your bottles if you wish. Trek for another hour and a half to reach Bekaltal, a lake with grassy sides ideal for camping. This lovely lake is surrounded by an oak grove. You'll come across another beautiful lake called "Khopdaliya." Pitch your tents by the lake, wait for the excellent cuisine to be served, and then retire to your tents for the night.
