You'll spend the night at the IYC Manali Base Camp, sleeping in twin/triple sharing basis. Don't forget to stock up on any last minute essentials in Manali, because you may not find what you want later in the trek.

On the first day of the trek you will trek from Bhang to Solang valley and then to Old Manali via Shanag and Burua village. This 15 km trek takes about 6 to 8 hours to cover. You will stay for the night at a camp in Old Manali.

Tonight you'll have a long day of trekking over 15 kms, but it'll be a relief to reach the more peaceful environs of Old Manali. From here, you'll get sprawling views of the landscape around.

Today you will trek from Old Manali to Manu temple, Hamdimba temple and Vashisht temple. Vashisht temple is famous for its hot sulphur water springs. It takes about 4-5 hours to cover a distance of 7kms. You will camp overnight at Vashisht.

After your visit to the therapeutic hot springs of Vashisht, you won't feel like trekking too far to your next camp. That's why it's a good thing that you're camping in Vashisht itself.
