    If you’re looking for a quick, low cost summit day, staying at USHODAYA RESORTS in Araku works well. The 12 km drive lets you leave early, hit Deomali before dusk, and return to a budget room without extra overnight fees. Plus, the local bus to the trailhead runs hourly, keeping transport cheap. This setup gives you the peak and a comfortable base in one day.
