Upper Bakrota Walk
Upper Bakrota
A circular trail of about 5 km around Bakrota, the highest of Dalhousie's five hills, with cedar forest, views of snow peaks and the valley below.
Dalhousie is built across five hills: Kasdlog, Potrein, Terah, Bakrota and Balun. Bakrota is the highest. The Upper Bakrota Walk circles the summit for about 5 km. It is mostly flat, lined with colonial-era bungalows and tall cedars, and offers views of the Pir Panjal snow range and the Ravi River valley below. It is a classic route for both locals exercising in the morning and visitors out for a stroll. Along the way there are accommodation options and cafés. You can also walk from here to Subhash Baoli.
