Introduction
"Once in awhile, you should stray from the norm; you'll find yourself in the most incredible places doing the most amazing and amazing things with the most amazing people."
We pray that the universe conspires for your visit to the abode and mini-Israel of Lord Shiva or, as we prefer to call it, heaven. Kasol Kheerganga Trek offers you the double benefit of visiting two villages that are filled with nature's and religious bliss. The trek is easy with a moderate climb. Kasol and Kheerganga are at 1580 m respectively. Kheerganga, located in the Kullu District of Himachal Pradesh is a trekking enthusiast's paradise. Kasol is the trek base, a small village located 500km from Delhi. Kheerganga, a village famous for its Marijuana cultivation is located in the Parvati valley. It can be reached from Pin Parvati Pass. Parvati river, majestic mountains, iconic temples, and lined up Deodar or Oak trees make for a refreshing view. You will also be rewarded by a hot spring that is surprisingly warm in the middle of the freezing temperatures at the end of your trek. Kasol is, however, a popular destination for hippies, and off-late became an enticing stop for Israelis. Many Israeli cafes offer delicious Falafels and Borek as well as Chicken Laffa and Onion Fries with Hummus. The traditional stories and houses from various street corners will make you feel like you are theirs, and they will also delight your taste buds. We can assure you that this trek will lift your spirits and brighten your mood. There are many mythological stories from Hinduism and Sikhs that can be found here. These stories will be narrated by us. Join us on our next scheduled date to Kheerganga.
