One of the most beautiful and peaceful places I have ever visited. The scenic beauty is awesome. A very safe place for camping. The trekking route is challenging.
Jai Ganesh Devta. This place is believed to be the birthplace of lord Ganesh. Located at about 3000m from sea level. It takes 16km of trekking to reach this lake. There are various waterfalls and streams on the way. Enthusiasts can go further till Darwa pass from Dodital, about 5km steep climb, gaining about 800m more altitude. Overall the natural and relaxing vibes of this place are simply magical. And obviously it holds great historic and religious significance.

Dodital is a freshwater lake in uttarkashi district, Uttarakhand, India, situated at a height of 3,024 metres (9,921 ft). Assi ganga rises from dodital and joins bhagirathi. The confluence is at Gangori. To reach Dodital, From Uttarkashi, a short jeep ride of q19 kilometers will take you to Sangamchatti from where the 24 km trek to Dodital begins. This is a mostly gentle trek, with overnight halt options at the village of Agora or Bebra. At Agora, which is 6 km from Sangamchatti, one can stay at one of the private lodges or alternatively, camp at Bebra which is 8 km from Sangamchatti. From there one can start the second leg of the trek the next day which will take you to Dodital via the small summer settlement of Manjhi.
There is a forest rest houses at Dodital where one can book a stay by taking a permit at the forest office in Uttarkashi. Alternatively, one can camp by carrying tents. There's a basic canteen where one can get food and tea.
this beautiful hills location exceeded my expectations in every way. It is a haven of beauty, tranquility, and adventure. Whether you're seeking solace in nature, longing for a photography escapade, or craving thrilling outdoor activities, this place has it all. I highly recommend visiting this hidden gem to experience the magic for yourself!
