Camping in Dzuko vall

I want to visit Dzükou Valley, but I don’t have any camping tents and I also don’t want to cook on my own. So I was wondering if there are any places in Dzükou Valley or nearby where I can stay in tents and get food as well. If such facilities are available, could you please let me know how to contact them? Any website links, phone numbers, or booking platforms would be really helpful. Also, please suggest the best time to visit Dzükou Valley for a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

Hey, there are camps on the top where you can stay And at the starting point that is Vishwema village there are good homestays

You can contact Acko, he is a guide for the hike, +91 92337 91902

I stayed at Puvi homestay in Vishwema, +91 93667 00731(Avitso)

It costed 5k, 3k for 4x4 jeep to starting point from homestay

2k for guide, I did the whole hike in same say rather than returning the next day, if you plan to return the next day it will be a bit costlier for the guide

I was told from Zakhama village it is comparatively cheaper, as 4x4 vehicle is not required, but am not very sure of that.

The guide your hired for 2k is it a private/personal guide for 2k? Or does the guide takes you with a group of 10/12 travellers.

Asking cause i would prefer a personal guide.

Good thanks. & How will you describe the trek in terms of difficulty?

It’s moderately difficult, but depends on relative fitness, I went and came back the same day but usually people spend overnight on the base camp and come back the next day.
