Usually, it takes 7 hours to reach Barkot from Haridwar if we stop for a short break at Kampty fall but with a non-stop stretch, we can reach Barkot in around 06 Hrs. In peak season, there is usually a heavy traffic in Mussoorie, so in such situations, we can divert the route to Barkot via Vikas Nagar for our guest’s convenience. In this case Kampty fall sight-seeing can be discarded under last moment decision. Upon reaching Barkot, we will have dinner and retire for the day & Night Halt.
