“ Dear Traveller, we went on the most amazing 16 days trek from otherside of Rohtang Pass. Through Lahoul and Spiti and over Parang La and pass at 18.300 ft to the lake Tso Moriri and ending up at Pang on the Manali Leh road. It was a demanding but fabulous trek which I highly recommend to anyone who wants a real adventure. Our guide Prem and cook Lobsang were excellent; they took very good care of us and were great company as well. I highly recommend to anyone who wants a well organized and exciting trek”.
