Across the Himalayas: Part II

LINK TO PART I
It was an awesome journey till now and we were pretty content with how things went. Little did we know that, more than half of the excitement needed to be in store for the coming days.

Third Day: Puh to Nako to Jeori (Night Stay)

Snow & Trek at Nako Village, landslide on the way back to Shimla

We were quick to rise up and got ready within 8 am. Initially we had planned to visit Nako and head back to Shimla or Rekong Peo. But, the hills had something else planned for us. It was a known route from Pooh to Khab, but instead of the uphill road you need to take for Khab, for Nako, one needs to stay on NH22/NH5. Just a km ahead, you get the Sangam of Spiti and Sutlej Rivers. It was another unique valley spot where the valley just divides into two. The Spiti meets the Sutlej here. The colors of the water are different in the two rivers. While Spiti comes with greenish water, the Sutlej engulfs its color with its brownish tinge.

Across the Himalayas: Part I

India never ceases to amaze you. With our diverse landscapes, we have it all. Be it a serene beach (Goa/Mandarmani), an amazing Island (A&N/Lakshadweep), a dry desert (Thar) or the highest mountains, we have it all. I have always loved travelling and spicing up an IT guy's life is the most important treat, one which I like to give myself frequently. So, this time I experienced a landscape that comes under the Genre: Travel and Adventure.

The destination initially chosen was: Kinnaur, Himachal Pradesh

The route actually taken was: Delhi - Shimla (night stay) - Narkanda - Rampur - Rekong Peo(night stay) - Pooh - Khab - Pooh(night stay) - Nako - Jeori (night stay) - Narkanda - Delhi
