between China and India there are many military and ITBP camps. From Mana metal
road is available up to Ghastoli and you can go towards Kalindi Khal via this
road. The other road will lead you to Basudhara with Alakananda river on your

third one which goes down and crosses river Alakananda. Now you will get the
river on your right side.

1st day First you will see a temple and then the path goes through a stretch of
agricultural land. After a walk of good two hours you will reach wide grassland.
Yes, it is Ghastoli. You can see beautiful Basudhara fall on the other side of
Alakanada. During post monsoon season one should keep lot of water with him as
water crisis very common at this stretch. You will reach Lakhsmiban, surrounded
by some birch trees, after crossing this grassland. Height of Lakhsmiban is
12,000ft.
2nd day ( Lakhsmiban –Bandhar-Chakratirth )
Start early in the morning. Walk just about 2km and you are at Bandhar. A nice
small camping site. You can find a cave also there, where 3 to 4 persons can
take shelter in emergency. On the other side of Alakananda you will find
Bhanaglung glacier. It is the originating point of Alakananda. This place is
commonly known as Alakapuri. Besides Bhanglung glacier, there are some more
glaciers which also contribute to Alakananda.
From now on the path is full of boulders and gains height noticeably. After some
good walk you will reach Sahasradhara. On the right side Bhagirath glacier is
visible down below. Your path goes over the narrow ridge of that glacier. This
part of the journey is definitely risky. On the right side, behind the glacier
is Balkun peak. On the left side Narayan peak and behind you is Neelkanth.
After negotiating steep height through the boulder covered path you will reach
Neelkangh base camp. Now Neelkangh peak is in front of you! Chakrateertha is not
far away. After crossing some more boulder covered slope you will be at
Chakrateertha. Here you will find some caves of different sizes. These can
accommodate good number of people as night shelter. At 15,000ft, surrounded by
splendid Choukhamba, Balkun and Neelkanth peaks, the atmosphere is simply
superb. All days fatigues will disappear at this nice place.
3rd day (Chakrateertha to Satopanth Tal - 5km)
On this day you will face the real tough journey. The path goes straight upwards
almost like a wall. Definitely it will make your pace slow but one hour trek
will bring you to the top of the glacial wall. Here you can rest a while though
cold wind will welcome you. Now go down about 100 ft over loose rocks .Cross the
glacier covered with rocks of many sizes and shapes diagonally very carefully.
Then climb again to the top of the glacial wall. And see… that bluish-green
water reservoir ….almost triangular shape! It is your Satopanth Tal. You have
reached at last.
There is a concrete hut with low roof. You can pitch your tent there. You will
find some caves where Sadhus live. From Satopanth, you can see Swargarohini with
Choukhamba by its side. Balakun peak also visible clearly.
One can visit Suryatal and Chandratal (Not in Lahul and Spiti) from here within
a day.

Day 5th Next day go to Badrinath and your journey ends
