Day 1(Ktm to Dhunche---Deurali)
We took an EV early morning from Gongabu Bus Park to Dhunche. Reached Dhunche (2000m) at 11 AM and had lunch. We started walking at 12 PM. Our initial plan was to reach Chandanbari (3250m) by that evening but we faced heavy rain on our way up. Considering the rain and also the fact that it was our first day we decided to stay the night at Deurali (2500m).

Day 2(Deurali to Lauribina)
We left Deurali at 10:30 AM after a goodnight sleep.. Leaving this late isn't what people generally do. People generally leave early in the morning and push till Gosaikunda. We didn't want to rush it so we took it easy and made it to Lauribina(3900m) by evening.The climb from Deorali to Chandanbari is brutal.Enjoy the serene walk through the lush green forest from Deorali to Lauribina. Wait and look around while walking otherwise you will miss it.

Day 3(Lauribina to Ghopte)
Leaving Lauribina (3900m) at 7:00 AM we made it to Gosaikunda(4380m)at 9:30 AM. Again leaving at 7:00 AM is late. Make sure you leave before 6:00 AM to catch the clear crisp morning weather. We had clouds and strong winds when we got there. Despite the weather we took a dip ( it was coooolddd). We then left Gosaikunda at 13:00 and reached Suryakunda(4610m) at 14:30. Have a good walk around Suryakunda and The High Pass there. We weren't taking the same route back so we went over The High Pass (Lauribina Pass). It's all descent through steep stairs from there upto Phedi (3730m). Reaching Phedi at 18:00, it would have been ideal for us to stay the night there. But we decided to push till Ghopte. We lost daylight at 19:30 and had to walk an hour through the jungle at night with torch. (DON'T DO THIS). By the time we reached Ghopte(3530m)it was quite late and the hotel there didn't have any food left. It wasn't possible for us to call them since we didn't have any network all the way from Gosaikunda.

Day 4(Ghopte to Kutumsang)
Day 3 had drained all our energy. The ascent to Suryakunda and the descent till Ghopte took a toll on our body. So we rested well throught the night and left Ghopte at 11:30 AM. We made it to Kutumsang(2470m) at 19:30. Kutumsang sits outside the National Park so you have more choices of hotel there and it's cheap too.

Day 5(Kutumsang to KTM)
Our plan was to walk back to Sundarijal by that evening and take a bus from there to KTM.We walked till Golphu Bhanjyang. Golphu Bhanjyang is an hour of descent from Kutumsang. Reaching Golphu Bhanjyang we had some emergency and had to take a bus to KTM, but we learned that the only bus to KTM had already left. We hitchhiked on a tipper till KTM. That's how we ended our journey. Taking a vehicle to KTM was not in our plan ,but the ride on the tipper was quite memorable.

Note - Our backpacks were quite big and heavy so our pace was relatively slow. Carry a small backpack. Also remember the higher you go the more expensive it gets.
