Deoriatal is located in Chamoli, a district of Garhwal, in Uttaranchal India. Deoriatal can best be visited between October to December and between March to May. In fact it is a beginners trek and can be clubbed with Kedarnath or Tunganath trek in the Panch Kedar Circuit.
The trek itinerary: Day 1: Rishikesh - Ukhimath by bus or jeep. Day 2: Ukhimath to Sari by jeep and Sari to Deoriatal by trek. Night halt at Deoriatal campsite (tent and food are very well managed by the people of Sari). Day 3: Watch sunrise in Deoriatal. Trek back to Sari. Sari to Ukhimath by jeep. Ukhimath to Rudraprayag by jeep.
Deoriatal is famous for the exotic view of Chowkhamba and its reflection on the Tal. It is said that the Tal's depth can not be measured. Whatever be it, it can be rightly said it is one of the best beginner's trek. The trek may be less tough but the view it offers is mind blowing. It is a true heaven on earth. The attached images were taken by me on October 2005.
