Itinerary
Day 1 : (Manali) Explore Old Manali
Arrival at base camp- Osm Vacation Camps, Manali. Today, you will spend the day at leisure. Though we would recommend you to explore the lanes Old Manali- its cafes, hippie culture and liberating vibes. Go for cafe hopping. Don’t miss out on Shakshuka, taste-buds teasing Trout, Dylan’s coffee and a lot more. Stay at the campsite for the night.
Day 2 : (Sethan Village) Drive To Prini. Trek from Prini to Sethan Village. ( 3hrs- 4hrs)
Wake up to the beautiful campsite. Freshen up, get ready and fill up your belly as you would be energy to sustain yourself for the next couple of hours. We will start from the drive from the campsite in Old Manali to the Prini Village. From here onwards, start the trek – a mixed terrain of forest and road taking you to the oblivion- that’s right! It’s time to relax and lose yourself to the calm vibes of the valley. Sethan, this village sits at an altitude of 8858 feet. You can compare it with Solang Valley minus the crowd. It is a place for slow travellers. In winters, it becomes practically impossible to move beyond this Buddhist town. From Sethan, one can see the towering Dhauladhar ranges surrounding the village, and the river Beas flowing right next to it – perhaps a few thousand feet down. Settle in your cosy guesthouse. Walk around the village. After some time, it will be time to have dinner. Try to sleep early so that you can enjoy the final destination.
Day 3 : (Chika ) Trek from Sethan Village towards Chika in Hampta Valley (4hrs-5hrs)
After breakfast, we will try to leave at a reasonable time for you to enjoy the trek in its pristine form. Today will be a snow trek towards Chika and you can give yourself an out and out an adventurous time. We will trek on a snow trail till the point it is doable. On one side of the pass lies the lush green Kullu valley and on the other side is the stark opposite desert valley of Lahaul. Enjoy the snowy trail and indulge in some snow activities. After some time, we will trek back from the same route. Reach campsite and enjoy the evening with piping hot dinner around the warmth of the bonfire.
Day 4 : (Manali) Trek back to Manali and departure
After breakfast, we will depart from Sethan Village and trek back to Prini. From there, you will be left at Manali. And in no time, it will be time to bid adieu to this wonderful trip.
