## About this trip

Kasol sits on the banks of the Parvati River, a small mountain town known for its cafes, flea market and easy riverside trails. This 3-day, 2-night trip pairs a relaxed first day in Kasol with one of Himachal's best-loved treks.

You reach Kasol in the morning after an overnight journey, rest a while and then explore the flea market and cafes, with the option of the 3 km riverside trail to Chalal village. The evening brings a bonfire with light music and a night in Kasol.

On Day 2 the group drives to Barsheni and treks 5-6 hours up to Kheerganga, arriving in the evening for a hot dinner and a night at the campsite. The last morning starts with a dip in the hot water spring at the top, followed by the trek back down to Barsheni and a visit to Manikaran Sahib Gurudwara before the journey home. Stays, breakfasts and dinners, AC transfers, permits and a tour curator are all taken care of.
