Hi again back from my daily routine ..got back to something I love and enjoy sharing with everyone. Like its truly said adventure begins at the end of comfort zone and so is this trek. This unique trek is a combination  of easy to moderate and because this area does not have regular visitors it makes it pristine and spotless to trek. Let me take you thru one of the best and most promising trek of ours….where the adventure begins at the heart of Himalayas and ends at the busiest city of India the capital…. Delhi 

Day 01: Delhi Upon arrival in Delhi, we are met by our local guides and transfer to a Hotel in Delhi to freshen up. There will be some free time to explore Delhi this afternoon, before we take the transfer to the train station to catch our sleeper train to Pathankot.
