This is a short but interesting trek and gives the trekker an opportunity to peep into the heights of Kullu valley. Typical Himalayan villages and Shephards (Gaddi) are sure to be there to greet you. The trek to Chandratal the " Moon Lake" is almost like going to the moon. Staring at you is this turquoise crescent of water surrounded by the Chandrabhaga & Mulkila Massifs. The lake seems to hypnotize you with its various hues and is like a nymph left alone in this great Himalayan setting of towering mountains. This moderately difficult trek is also provides one with an opportunity to get to as high of 16,500 ft. aprox. without too much difficulty.
