  • Welcome to Kullu Manali's old-fashioned adventure domains, a domain that includes the very first trekking trail via a gorgeous pass to the most primitive tribes in the North Himalayan Province. The trip takes place in the abundant plains of Naggar, an ancient settlement with various temples, tourist sites, art galleries, museums, and other attractions. It is a complete alpine trekking designed for comfortable walks at low altitudes. The routes wind through different vegetation, including decorated meadows, brilliant Himalayan herbs, alpine bushes and shrubs, and eventually lofty mountains of small plants. It all starts in Naggar with a drive to the roadhead in Rumsu hamlet, and then the thrilling memoir begins.It may be difficult at first, but pacing up the course ultimately becomes second nature. The panorama will follow you the entire journey, enticing you to view more and more of the brilliant Nature. The forest density is commendable, giving rise to some of the largest trees that stand humbly fostering nature long before human habitation.
  • The elevation of Chandarkhani Pass is 11800 feet above sea level. This two-night, three-day trek is an adventure hotspot due to its stunning beauty and superb hiking tracks in the Himalayan range. Its amazing views, breathtaking landscapes, and lonely routes make it an ideal tourist destination, offering views of the Pir Panjal mountains, Deo Tibba Peak, and Parbati.
  • The trail is beautiful and full of surprises, making every elevation increase extremely satisfying. There are several different types of trees, including Deodar, Pine, Walnut, Chestnut, Oak, Fir, Birch, Juniper, and Rhododendron. A variety of flowers, Himalayan herbs, and miniature plants can also be discovered throughout the walk. As altitude increases, the vegetation shortens, eventually transforming into shrub-like plant life scattered across the hillsides. The Chandarkhani hills are abundant in Himalayan herbs, which are frequently harvested by the residents living below for therapeutic purposes. The peak of Chandarkhani is supposed to be the home of 18 crore Gods and Goddesses, celestial entities who dominate and influence the valley's cultures, rituals, life styles, and social conducts. It is a powerhouse of celestial authority done on each assembly of divinities to resolve any major or general rites. These divine visitation occur infrequently, yet the Deities will approach the spot whenever necessary to save humans. It's in God's country, which is a lovely place to be. It is not your typical hike, but it entices you with a range of observations and knowledge about nature and its value to our future.

Preparation for Chandrakhani Pass Trek

As you know every mountainous excursion demands a precise planning, a planning with adequate pliability of observing and tackling situations, held all as by overcoming mind body and soul throughout the incredible Himalayan journey.

So here are some aspects regarding Chandrakhani Pass Trek preparation:

Physically – A trek demands physical endurance, to prepare for each trek you should work out a month before joining a program. Build up the adequate strength in your legs by running and exercising every day to boost up your endurance. Stop smoking and boost your lungs doing breathing exercises at routine basis two times a day, which will help acclimatize the conditions while being resilient on the trek. Take active part in outdoor games, Yoga and any other cardiac exercises.

Mentally – Mental preparation is key, equally as important as physical training requisite for a trek. Before joining any trek take pleasure in your daily routines, eat well, take rest properly and relax. Do not stress your mind by unnecessary predictions about the trek. Be with your best friends to get motivated and relax your mind. Because pre trek assumptions are not worthy because once you join the trek and meet with rest of the pack will bring encouragement and excitement. The mental preparedness will build through the entire trek conditions. And the physical drawbacks will affect the mind. So pay close attention to various parts of the body and consciously let them loosen up as you trek. When you trek try to relax your body, especially your hips. If you’re on a winding downhill trail or on a panicking slant, think of each step as part of a simple dance and enjoy the natural rhythms that the terrain and your body can find together cautiously. Experiment with different ways of walking as a way of finding enjoyment beyond the goal of reaching a destination. The main key to stay mentally fit is to enjoy the route and not to pressurize the mind.

Technically- Gear up yourself with perfect size trekking shoes and walk with it. Use 60ltr. Backpack in a daily routine with some weight inside it, so you become used to carrying loads. Buy a trekking pole, water bottle, warm socks, thermals, fleece, feather jackets, trousers, poncho, flip flops, electronics such as power bank, camera (DSLR or digital camera).

Detail Itinerary for Chandrakhani Pass Trek

Day 1: Reach Naggar (1800m/5900ft.) – Rumsu (2200m/7200ft.) – Naya Tapru (3450m/9770ft.)
As the walk will take the entire day, arrive in Naggar early and begin driving towards Rumsu village. Our walk begins with a strong rise that leads for a while before descending to intermediate trekking tracks. The path winds through woods, shrubs, and torrents to Stelling Ghon Kradi's highland pastures and then to our campground at Naya Tapru. These are all pastoral slants for the livestock of the inhabitants that reside below. But Naya Tapru is the most expansive, with views of the Dhauladhar range, Hanuman Tibba, and, most notably, Manali. When it gets dark, it looks fantastic, and the lights of town add to the sense of remoteness. After completing the day's trek, rest in the natural surroundings. Eat your dinner next to the small fire and sleep peacefully inside the tents.
Day 2: Naya Tapru – Chandarkhani Pass (3700m/12140ft.) – Naya Tapru
Get up early before the sun casts its first rays on the mountains. View the sunrise as it contrasts and glorifies the mountains as it can shine on the various terrains. Pack your day sack, lunch, drink, and any other items you may require later in the hike. The trail will continue to ascend and moderate through high altitude vegetation of Rhododendrons, Birch, and Fir trees, as well as a slew of discarded animals of Bulls, Cows, and some tamed Horses and Mules roaming the slopes. Many of them may be grazing out there, and when we pass by the trail, they may question, "What are you doing in here?" Nonetheless, constant change will welcome the viewer, allowing him to fulfil his feelings at each stage. The great open areas will now be consistent and will display the Pass as we reach Chaklani, a summer halting point for shepherds and some trekkers. Gupt Ganga, an underwater stream, emerges beside the trail to Chandrakhani Pass shortly after Chaklani. This creek runs all year, even in the winter, and serves as a constant source of drinking water for commuters. The water is considered sacred and is returned for spiritual offerings and devotion. It's a gentle climb to the Pass along grassy slants that look like carpet awnings. The top of the pass is made sacred because 18 crore Gods and Goddesses are said to have resided there, creating an abode of powerful vibrations that flatter the entire region. The peak offers a 360-degree view of the surrounding mountains and the most interesting figures of the holy stone emerging from the earth. It is a sacred spot, so please leave no litter or shouts, and respect the site's integrity as it is a popular pilgrimage site for the associated homes. We'll spend some time there before returning to the campsite. When you arrive, grab a hot cup of tea, some munchies, and relax among the majestic hills. Watch the sunset paint the skies in a variety of hues that change sequentially till nightfall.
Day 3: Nayya Tapru – Rumsu – Naggar – Departure on
Today we will return to civilization, to the rush and bustle of the modern world. We'll take the same road back to Rumsu and then drive to Naggar. At Naggar, you will be given all of your previously left-over belongings and will be free to travel to your desired locations.

The trek went very well. One thing I would highly recommend is providing hot water in the morning for drinking + limited use of face wash, etc. I believe this is provided in the winter treks, but you should continue in other seasons also. As you know, the morning temperatures are pretty low at higher altitudes. Lots of good things: - excellent trek leader - Friendly kitchen + support staff - Amazing trek and beautiful campsites - safety in the Covid times

The trek went really well. I'd been on another trek with a different organization and let me tell you the difference in approach for everything is sooo much. Had I not tried, I'd HAT not known that such a positive, well thought, and planned approach for a trek is even possible. Smallest to biggest things were thought of. Nothing came to us as a shock or something which we weren't prepared for. I experienced such warm hospitality from you guys that it didn't seem like a professional/corporate organization just wanting to attract people for their profits.
