Any idea on the latest condition of Dalhousie - Bani - Bhaderwah - Doda Road?
Is this all season road?
If closed during winters, what are the probable dates of opening?
Any pointers would be helpful.

Lost and found in Ladakh!
[MENTION=643]hiambuj[/MENTION]: Not sure if the area receives that much of snowfall to be closed till June, assuming that is when you are going to that place.
The best person to answer this will be the Guest house care taker at Sarthal, if you can arrange for his number from PWD office.

When is the road from Dalhousie-sach pass-kishtawar is open ? Is it possible to travel on this road on a tempo traveller, when the road is open ?
Thanks.
 
Dalhousie - Bani - Sarthal is a route which is open for major part of the year, except December - Feb. Sarthal to Bhaderwah is open for motorists only after April and is open till October as Chhatar Gali (a mountain pass between Sarthal and Bhaderwah) receives heavy snowfall. One will find road only from Dalhousie to Pepdi (around 25kms before Bani), then few kms on either sides of Bani and few kms before Bhaderwah.

Sach Pass opens in/after June. Although its possible to travel through this route on a Tempo Traveler, it'd be advisable to take a smaller vehicle with high GC and preferably a 4x4.

Thanks. :)
I am doing it then.
I read somewhere that if you start from Chamba side, you need permit from Chamba police station. Is it true?
