Beas Kund Trek
Beas Kund trek is one of the most popular trails that one can do in a longer weekend in Manali. The trek takes you away from the hustle and bustle of Manali. Following the banks of Beas River expect great views of Pir Pinjal ranges. The meadows of Dhundi & Bakarthach are spectacular in its beauty. As you climb higher you reach the origin of River Beas. A small glacial lake is feeded by the melting snow of the higher peaks of the region. This trek is suitable for all age groups and no trekking experience is required to do it.
Some people prefer mountains and some ocean. And then there are some who have a soft spot in their heart for rivers, meadows, flora or fauna, and would travel endless hours just to witness such isolated miracles of nature rarely witnessed in the proximity of any human settlements. Similarly, I have always had a fascination with high altitude alpine lakes. The contrasting sight of a peaceful water body nestled between jagged mountain peaks has always managed to get my pulses racing. Already in Manali on Friday evening and with the weekend in hand to do a trek, the urge to visit such a lake and camp next to its shores helped me zero in on the Beas Kund trek in Kullu valley.
Day 1 : Drive to Solang Nala & trek to Bakrathatch ( 13 Kms Trek )
Report at Manali Govt. Bus Stand at 8 AM. Please arrive in Manali a day before as most of the buses run late on this route and do not arrive before 8 AM. You will be picked from Manali bus stand. From Manali a short drive of 12 kms to Solang Nala takes us our starting point. From here, we start walking to Dhundi. The entire route after Solang nala offers spectacular views of snowcapped mountains. From Solang Nala the route is through forest of oak, fir and walnuts. This is a level walk of 8 kms along the right bank of river Beas. The peaks visible enroute are Deo Tibba 6001 mtrs and Indrasan peak 6220 mtrs. From Dhundi we trek for 5 kms to Bakrathatch (3270m). It would be a lush trail with great Himalayan peaks like 7 sisters always visible on one side.
Day 2 : Trek from Bakrathatch to Beas Kund & Back( 6 Kms Trek )
After breaking camps early we climb gently to Beas Kund . The route is through boulders and rocks in summers & through snow in winters . After a trek of 4-5 hours we will see the beautiful lake of Beas Kund . This lake is believed to be the source of River Beas. Beas kund is also the base camp for summit peaks like Friendship, Ladakhi & Shitidhar. After spending some time clicking pictures & having some food here, we head back to our camp in Bakkarthatch.
Day 3 : Trek from Bakkarthatch to Solang Nala ( 13 Kms Trek ) & Drive to Manali
Today we descend to Solang Nala by the same route that was used for coming up. From Solang Nala, we drive back to Manali. You will be dropped at Manali bus stand by late evening.
