For all three major Valleys of Dharchula we firstly travel through the same road till Tawaghat which is 17km from Dharchula, then we get separated from Vyas Valley route. After some kilometres from Tawaghat we get to see Chhirkila Dam built on Dhauliganga River or Darma Yangti. Now we reach Kanjoti, from here routes for Chaudas Valley will change.  Lower Darma Valley  The flood of 2013 in Uttarakhand was disastrous and damaged many places of Dharchula too. One
