We start our day with a ride to Tosh Village from Kasol, enroute we will also come across Barsheni on a confluence of Tosh and Parvati River facing the Parvati Valley Dam. Begin your trek from Barsheni alongside Tosh River through dense forest of Oak, pine and deodar to reach the beautiful springs and boulders which mark the arrival of Buddhaban which is a beautiful meadow.

After freshen up and breakfast we begin our trek to Sharam Thach, through beautiful meadows and rhododendron flowers alongside Tosh River.

Upon crossing a stone bridge we will reach our campsite. Overnight stay in tents.
Day 3 -Trek from Sharam Thach – Shamshi Thach (3,800m)
Today will be a steep climb over snow on a slender yet challenging path. However its only in the beginning, after the initial run the trail will improve. Enjoy the roaring music of the Tosh River as you walkside along it and enjoy the music stewn by the birds chirping and making pretty sounds for company. We will begin our descent to Shamshi Thach located in the lap of the valley. Enjoy astonishing views of the majestic Tosh Glacier and the Makalu Peak. Overnight stay in tents
