Details of Oli Tour ( India )

 Details of Oli Tour

Location: Oli, Rishikesh, Mussoorie
Uttarakhand, India.

A long time ago I gave a post about Oli's smoff, I said I would try to give all the details later.

Let's start a little earlier, in June 2016, 10 people came to visit Kashmir !! The immense beauty of Kashmir fascinated us, but a disappointment ensued. That is ice. What did I do to find ice! From Betab Valley to Chandanwari, from Sonmarg's Thaiwaz Glacier to Zero Point, I got a glimpse of snow, the snowfall was a fig flower! Aslam returned to Bangladesh, but he sang with a squeak in his mind.

I thought that since I have a visa, I will visit Shimla and Manali. December came to find to time, But I heard that some places in Manali are closed in December due to extra snow, so that plan was dropped. So where to go? I came to know about Oli and Mussoorie through a brother. I posted on the TOB helpline. Very few people were able to give information about the place, anyway, after browsing the net, I decided to go here after watching the video on YouTube, which will be seen! I managed the budget a little more because all the hotels / resorts of Oli Tour is very expensive!

Here's how I went:

16/01/2018

I drove from Dhaka to 3 Green Line BRTC, reached Kolkata at 8 pm, stayed overnight on Marquis Street. The next night at 8 o'clock the train, Dun Express 13009, 4 more people joined us from Kolkata. A total of 6 people. The train left at 8 pm. Due to fog, we reached Dehradun after 6 hours late and 40 hours later! After lunch from the train, we set off for Mussoorie in a pre-reserved car. On the way, the sunset with the terrifying mountain road brought the feeling of heaven to the mind for a moment. I went to Mussoorie for some time. We spent the night at a wonderful resort on the hill there. The temperature was around 0 . The next morning was awesome, shrouded in fog all around, a head of the Himalayas could be seen in the distance! I checked out of the resort, there is an eco park to visit in Dhanoulti from where there is a clear view of the Himalayas, there is also Camp Kalista, Surakanda Devi Temple! (300 stairs). About 300 km of hilly roads, 2 minutes after 120 * turn! After about 10 hours of chats, stories, songs, we reach Yashimath !! Runa is there for Oli from night to day. Auli is only 14 km from Yashimath. There are two ways to go to Oli
1. By car
2. Ropeway
If I hadn't, 't gone to the ropeway, I might have missed a lot in life. It is the largest cable car in India that took 11 years to build. From the ropeway to the surrounding huge parara gula will take your mind! Each mountain has a name, for example; Nilkantha, Beauty Queen, Elephant, Trisul, Nanda Devi, etc !!

We got off at Tower 8 and landed at Nanda Devi Resort. Those of you who wants to go back day by day can go to Tower 10 and back again !! Our resort was right next to Artificial Lake.
I wandered around all day and got a little ready for the next day’s trek. It is good to say here that those of you who can trek a lot or are willing can visit many places by hiring a guide here. Daily guide fare is 1200 rupees. Trekking up to 8,10,15,20 km !! It may take 2,3,10 days !! You can get tent / snowboat / stick from them (rent).

On the morning of January 23, everyone went out for the Gorson Bugyal trek, the sky was very cloudy, and there was a risk of snowfall in the weather forecast. I came back to the cottage at 4 in the afternoon, but I did not get snowfall!
Annoyed, everyone fell asleep because there was freezing air outside.
Rocky Khan woke up at 8 o'clock at night at the call of his brother.

"Brother Nahid came early, it was snowing."

What I saw outside was one of the fillings of life !!!
The temperature was -11 *. Without thinking, I went out wearing my jacket. Feet were freezing cold. In just 30 minutes, 1 foot of snow had accumulated.
The next morning was a little different, covered with ice all around, the water of the lake froze and turned to ice. I did a lot of dapadapi, even after wearing a snowboat, a little of ice was in excruciating pain. One day. After spending a lot of time we went out for the purpose of Rishikesh! It seemed from the ropeway when he arrived
Going over to heaven! Believe that the world is so beautiful you cannot understand without seeing it with your own eyes!

Haridwar, Rishikesh is a significant place for Hindus. There are many things to see in Rishikesh - Ramjhula, Laxmanjhula (Bridge), numerous temples including Rajaji National Park, as well as river rafting (500 / -), bungee jumping (3000 / -, 63 meters), cliff jumping (free with rafting), Bike riding (600 / -) etc. etc.
