Trekking to Hary Gund !

Day 1- 8th May 2008
From Srinagar we took a car to Nagnag. What a beautiful place!
Nagnag is a town between mountains at around 2000m of high. Even when is spring now, we can see snow in the peak of its mountains. There is also some ruins from a hinduism temple. Local people told us that it was destroyed due to an earthquake in the area long time ago. We have just camped beside the temple!
After setting the tents we have done a training around the valley Kala Pani (beside the village).We have gone with Ryaz, a 24 years old boy native from Nagnag who was very nice to us.
When we arrived to the tents we met a group of childrens and we shared a few popular games. We have shown them "tita pon un coco" , typical game from our home town. Eventually, we eneded up being a group of around 20 childrens and us:-)
A day plenty of trekking , games and curry and rice for dinner, of course!!

Day 2- 9th May 2008
We woke up early to have breakfast and pack all the tents to start walking up to Budshill mountain. It has been a not very long (3 ours) but hard trekking. We have reached 3,500m of high today! The place where we have campled has amazing views !!
Unfourtunately it has been all the afternoon and evening raining so we have spent all the time in the tent singing and sharing stories and traditions of our regions:-)

Day 3- 10th May 2005
After breakfast we have started the trekking that has brought us until the peak of the Hary Gund mountain at 4,000 m of high.
It has been a hard trekking with lots of snow, big inclination and very sleepery path! We haven't been very lucky with the weather either as it has been very foggy and raining and snowing in some parts. This didn't allow us to see the nice views around. However, we had a wonderful time with our guide Ryaz. He is a very funny guy and we have been singin, dancing and even making a snowman :-)
