One of our most challenging treks, this route into Kullu Valley via the holy hot springs of Manikaran was not discovered until the 19th century when an English explorer chanced upon the pass high above Mudh village in Pin Valley. The route passes south of the resplendent Bada Shigri Glacier, surrounded on all sides by peaks above 6000m. This trek takes you on an awe-inspiring journey from High Altitude Deserts to the lush greenery and monsoon swept southern slopes of the Himalayan foothills. There will be river crossings and may also be snow walking involved so the safety of participants is of paramount concern for us. Because of the difficulty of the route, no pack animals can join us in our trek and all food and equipment for the 12 day trek must be brought with us by porter.
