Program ( 3 days / 2 nights )

  • Day1

    Bhuntar - Manihar - Jammu Nala (2800 mts / 4-5 hrs trek)

    Report in Bhuntar at 8:00 AM.

    Once you have freshened up and had breakfast at Bhuntar, you can proceed towards Manihar which is approximately 30 kms away. The journey is quite picturesque, as you will be traveling alongside the beautiful Beas River for most of the way. After taking a quick snack break and preparing for the trek, you can start your journey from Pancha, where a water project is currently underway. As soon as you begin the trek, you will notice the dense forest and feel the sudden drop in temperature. The Jammu Nala campsite, which is your destination for the day, can be reached after trekking alongside the Pancha Nala for 3-4 hours.

  • Day2

    Jammu Nala to Grahan via Khauli Pass (max 3750 mts / 6-7 hrs trek)

    After breakfast, the target for the day is Grahan. It's recommended to start the trek early in the morning to cross the pass during sunrise and witness the beautiful Indrasan, Friendship, and Hanuman Tibba peaks illuminated by the first rays of sunshine. After trekking for a few hours, you will reach Padri by afternoon. At this point, you can assess whether there is enough time to reach Grahan or camp at Padri itself. The trek from Padri to Grahan is a pleasant walk down the Garahan Nala to the Padri campsite, which is situated on a meadow. You will reach Padri by evening, followed by a bonfire and camping under the stars for the night.

  • Day3

    Grahan to Kasol (2280 mts / 3-4 hrs trek)- Bhuntar - Delhi

    Today's target is an easy trek, so you can take it easy in the morning. You can start the day by descending along the Grahan Nala and heading towards Kasol, from where you will reach the road head to Bhunter. You will be carrying packed lunch which you can have just before reaching the road head. From there, you can take a Tempo traveller/Jeep back to Bhuntar, which is around 30 kms away.
