Route and permit status

What our coordinators have actually confirmed, and when. Anything past its re-check time is marked as not recently verified, which means unknown rather than open.

The road, as elevation

From 910 m in the Kali gorge to about 4,570 m below Adi Kailash, with almost the whole gain in the last quarter of the drive. Each leg carries what we have confirmed about it, which at the moment is nothing.

  • Gunji to Nabhidhang

  • Gunji to Jyolingkong
    ~4,570 mNot confirmedNever checked

The highest ground on this journey is Jyolingkong at about 4,570 m. Above Gunji the road forks: one arm climbs to Nabhidhang for the Om Parvat viewpoint, the other up the Kuti valley to Jyolingkong. Altitudes marked with a tilde come from a single source and we have not been able to confirm them against a second one. A leg we have not checked recently shows as not confirmed rather than keeping its last reading, because an old yes is not a yes.

segment checks published by our coordinators

Nothing has been verified yet

A check is a person, not a feed. It means one of our coordinators has driven a segment, or spoken to somebody who drove it that day, and has put a name and a time against what they found. Nobody has published one for this season.

We would rather show you an empty page than a reassuring one. What other people publish about this road is further down, along with how old each of those readings is.

State road closure register

The state road register does not report on the road above Tawaghat. An absence of closures for the high route means nobody has published anything, not that the road is open.

Government rest house beds

Kumaon Mandal Vikas Nigam runs the only accommodation above Dharchula. These are its own numbers for a night about a month out, which is a question about capacity rather than about this weekend.

No official source reports road status above Tawaghat, and no weather station exists anywhere on this route. Everything here is either a government portal's own words or a model's output, never an observation.

Tell me when this changes

We will message you when the route status actually changes. Not when we re-check it and find nothing new, which is most days.

We publish what we can verify and mark what we cannot. Nothing on this page is a guarantee of access, weather or darshan. If a segment matters to your travel, ask us before you set out.
