Trek Itinerary
Day 1 - Manali-Jagatsukh-Chikka (3000 meters)
We drive from Manali to Jagatsukh which is seven kilometers and once used to be the administrative capital of Kullu. It's a town seeped in history. From here a defined trek ascends towards Chikka along Jagatsukh Nallah. We will get to cross a few side streams and negotiate some dangerous sections below high rocks over deep gorges. We cross through thick forests and continue to gain height till we reach a flat land with beautiful green grass equally spread across a vast area. Now the path has become very easy as we have to keep on walking on green pastures till we reach Chikka (2900 meters). There is also a beautiful waterfall not very far from our campsite as well as few overhang rock shelters.
