Our Beas Kund Trek 2N/3D Package from Manali
Beas Kund Trek 2N/3D
<p>The <strong>Beas Kund Trek</strong> is Manali's most rewarding easy escape — a 2-night, 3-day journey to a glacial lake at 3,700 metres that holds a place of both natural beauty and mythological significance. This is the <strong>source of the Beas river</strong>, one of the five great rivers of Punjab, and according to legend the spot where the sage Vyas (Vyasa, author of the Mahabharata) bathed after completing that monumental work. The kund (pool or tank) is a still, brilliantly blue glacial lake fed directly by the Shitidhar glacier — the snout of the glacier is clearly visible a short distance above the lake.</p><p>The approach from <strong>Dhundi</strong> (on the Manali–Rohtang road) climbs through one of the finest wildflower meadows in Himachal Pradesh. In July and August, the meadow at <strong>Bakarthach</strong> (the base camp at 3,200 metres) is carpeted in blue primrose, yellow potentilla, purple aconite, and dozens of other alpine species. The views of the Hanuman Tibba (5,982 m), Shitidhar, and the entire Rohtang–Kullu ridge are outstanding from the trail.</p><p>The trek is graded <strong>Easy</strong> — the trail is well-defined, the altitude gain is gradual, and no technical skills are required. It is an ideal first Himalayan trek for families, beginners, or those who want a short but genuine mountain wilderness experience close to Manali. The trek is also popular as an acclimatisation outing for those planning the Hamta Pass Trek or more serious Himachal objectives.</p><p>Junegiri Yatra includes private transport from Manali to Dhundi, all camping equipment, a certified guide, and all meals on the mountain. The season runs from <strong>June to September</strong>, with July and August being the wildflower peak.</p>
