Kasol Kheerganga Trek
Trek at a glance
Trek highlights
Yes, we have plenty of treks on offer to people who want to take a break from Delhi or the nearby cities and towns, but there is something about the Kasol Kheerganga Trek. This is one of those treks that is truly magical:
- As you are transported overnight from Delhi to Kasol, you wake up in a land that seems straight out of a fairytale
- Savour a lazy day, exploring Kasol and all its wonderous sights, and indulge in some local flavours
- Rest and gear up for the trek next day at an adorable homestay
- A gradual and fairly easy trek takes you from Barshaini to Kheerganga, via coniferous forests
- Don’t miss out on the natural hot springs at the top of the trail that will wash your tiredness away
- Sleep under the stars in a camp and wake up to the sounds of the mountains
- Make a stop at the legendary Manikaran Sahib Gurudwara and watch the Parvati River glide on its way
Once the trek is done and you head back home, we promise you that your backpack might have unwashed laundry, but your heart will be filled with joy. Your camera will have memories that are screensaver worthy and your head will be pondering over the next trek with our tribe!

Trek guidelines
To ensure everyone has a great time and knows what to expect, please read these important points:
No alcohol or smoking
For everyone’s safety and enjoyment, please don’t consume alcohol, intoxicants, or smoke at any point during the journey or trek.
Dinner before boarding
Kindly complete your dinner before you board the bus.
Travel arrangements
We’ll arrange transportation based on our group size. If there are 12 or fewer of us, we’ll use a tempo traveler. For groups of 13 or more, it’ll be a mini-bus. Both options are non-AC and have push-back seats for your comfort. We appreciate your understanding regarding our travel logistics.
"Without Travel" option
If you prefer to arrange your own transportation to the destination (the homestay), be sure to book the “Without Travel” option when you sign up. Please note: If you select this, you’ll need a private car for your entire trip. Public transport won’t work, as our Day 2 activities begin directly from the homestay and require continuous private car access to ensure you can fully participate in all planned activities.
Embrace the outdoors
Our trips are about getting out into nature, often in remote locations. Please don’t expect luxury accommodations; we focus on providing comfortable basic facilities.
Food provided
We’ll provide basic, vegetarian meals. We do not serve non-vegetarian food.
Leave no trace policy
Please help us keep our beautiful outdoors clean by disposing of all litter properly.
