Overview

7 Lakes of Dhauladhar Trek

Though Kareri Lake is the source of Nyund stream, at an elevation of about 3,000 meters it can also be accessed by a new route via the Khauli valley. The Lake lies below Minkiani Peak. The trek, one of the most stunning alpine treks, can also be reached following the Khauli River. The trek crosses several streams, through lush green meadows and thick forests home to numerous Himalayan birds and animal species. 

Lord Shiva temple overlooking the lake is the main attraction. This trek route to Kareri Lake originates from Salli village and follows Khauli River. This is a rarely visited route and is pristine free from all trekkers. One treks from Salli village to Daled Camp staying overnight at the camp. The next day climb takes one over the eastern ridge and approaches Kareri lake. 

It will be a full days trek descending back to Daled camp. The new latest and shortest route for the trek starts from Salli village and one can use Snow Monk Camp as the base. Snow Monk camp offers modern washrooms and toilets and delicious meals. It makes all the sense to use it as a base for treks such as Kareri lake.

Baleni Pass is accessed through the Khauli Valley which is also the source of Khauli River, at an elevation of about 3,750 meters located in the Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh. The trek to Baleni Pass is one of the most stunning alpine treks in Himachal Pradesh. The trail crosses several gushing streams, through lush green meadows and a thick forest that is home to numerous Himalayan bird and animal species. 

The Baleni Pass trek originates from Salli village and passes through a thick pine forest. From Salli village, there is a gradual ascend to Rehla campsite. The next day climb takes one over the eastern ridge and approaches the pass. It will be a full-day trek descending back to Rehla camp. 

Baleni Pass also offers access to Lam Dal seven holy lakes. The new latest and shortest route for the trek starts from Salli village and one can use Snow Monk Camp as the base. Snow Monk camp offers modern washrooms and toilets and delicious meals. It makes all the sense to use it as a base for treks such as Baleni Pass.
