The Nag Tibba Trek covers 14-20 km round trip over 1-2 days, starting from Pantwari village near Mussoorie in Uttarakhand. This easy-to-moderate trail suits beginners and weekend adventurers, reaching a 9,915 ft summit with Himalayan views. Choose the right season to avoid weather hassles and enjoy a smooth journey with Uttarakhand Tour Travels.

Optimal Seasons

Autumn (September-November) and spring (March-May) offer the best conditions for hassle-free trekking, with dry trails, clear skies, and mild temperatures of 11-21°C daytime highs. These periods minimize risks like slippery paths or extreme cold, allowing steady coverage of the 7-8 km one-way distance in 4-6 hours per leg. Winter (December-February) adds snow magic for enthusiasts but requires gear for sub-zero nights down to -8°C.

Seasonal Weather Guide

Season Months Max/Min Temp (°C) Trail Conditions
Autumn Sep-Nov 15/ -4 Dry, clear views, post-monsoon fresh air 
Winter Dec-Feb 8/ -8 Snowy summit, enchanting but colder 
Spring/Summer Mar-Jun 21/2 Lush green, pleasant, family-friendly 
Monsoon Jul-Sep 16/6-8 Avoid: slippery, landslide risks 

Trek Itinerary Breakdown

Day 1: Drive from Dehradun (99 km, 3-4 hours) to Pantwari, then trek 4-7 km (3-4 hours) through forests to base camp at 7,610 ft for camping.

Day 2: Summit push (2-3 km, 2-3 hours) for 360° views of peaks like Bandarpoonch, then descend 7-8 km back to Pantwari. Total elevation gain: 2,300-4,652 ft, completable without exhaustion in ideal seasons.

Tips for Hassle-Free Coverage

Start early to beat crowds and midday heat; pack layers, hydration (3L water), and sturdy shoes for rocky sections. Opt for guided packages from Uttarakhand Tour Travels for permits, meals, and transport from Dehradun, ensuring safety on steeper summit inclines. Beginners should train with 5 km hikes; avoid the monsoon entirely for zero hassle.
