What I know, there is a route from Barsey to Srikhola via Fhalut & Gorkhey. Itinerary is:
Day 1: Hilley -> Barsey (rest and enjoy) Day 2: Barsey -> Kopche -> Koapani Day 3: Koapani -> Deoningale -> Jaributi -> Thulodhap Day 4: Thulodhap -> Achale -> Kalijhor Day 5: Kalijhor -> Chandrachokh -> Fokte Dnara -> Toriphule -> Phalut Day 6: Phalut -> Gorkhey -> Samanden -> Rammam -> Srikhola I don't know if there is any direct route between Barsey & Gorkhey as Gorkhey is on a river basin and Barsey is top on the true left side ridge of that river. May be there is some local route but I don't have any clue . |

Hi,
I had been to Vaarsey in Dec 2007....Definitely doable provided there is no snow enroute.....Take an experienced guide from Mane after consulting Masterji or Talk to Adhirda of Vaarsey and arrange for guide at Vaarsey. Get going...Cheers.. Tanmay
