Overview

Kheerganga trek is one of the most well-known destinations for trekking and is located at an altitude of 9,700 ft. Nestled deep in the Parvati Valley, it’s considered nature’s paradise as the beauty is almost spellbinding.

The Itinerary for the Kheerganga Trek starts with a drive from Delhi to Kasol. Then, the actual trek commences from Kasol itself which is a tiny hamlet in Himachal Pradesh’s Kullu district. Kasol is emerging as a popular tourist location best for budget traveling among young travelers. You can enjoy a night's stay in Kasol where you can indulge in camping, sit by the Parvati river, and go cafe hopping before we embark on the Kheerganga trek the next day.

All you need are two days to get completely mesmerized by the landscapes and witness the picturesque views. The Kheerganga trek reveals stunning terrains and provides an invigorating experience when one keeps walking on its enchanting trails. Here, you get to enjoy the lush green valleys in their purest form, hear the chirping of birds that has faded with time in metropolitan cities, and experience peace like no other. 

You’ll also get a chance to learn about the culture of Kheerganga while camping there. The history of Kheerganga dates back thousands of years and the place is considered the abode of Lord Shiva. 

The best time to do the Kheerganga trek is from September to June as the weather is pleasant and you can experience the true essence of this Himalayan trek with crystal clear skies and breathtaking vistas.

If you prefer a warmer climate and want to witness the spring flowers blooming all across the vast expanse of land, then March to June are the best months to do the Kheerganga trek. If you wish to trek on snow-laden trails where the entire landscape is covered in ivory white, then the months from November to February would be ideal to do the Kheerganga trek in winter.

Hot water springs and breathtaking views are a few things that make Kheerganga trek a truly beautiful experience. The phenomenon of hot water springs in the midst of such cold weather fascinates a lot of travelers and adds a certain boost to the tourism of Kasol and Kheerganga. 

The Kheerganga trek is a beginner-level trek as there is a gentle incline and it only gets steep at some patches in the trail making it easier for novice trekkers who don’t have a lot of experience to get the feel of walking on the mountains. You can rejuvenate yourself by dipping your feet in the cold water as there are many sparkling waterfalls on the trek route. 

One of them is Rudranag waterfall, which is the grandest waterfall you’ll encounter on this trek. The sparkling waterfall with snow-capped peaks in the background and dense forest all around make it a perfect natural retreat.

Additionally, the Rudranag temple that is nestled along the way to Kheerganga is also very popular amongst many pilgrims. The total distance covered during the Kheerganga trek is 12 Kilometers making it ideal for novice trekkers as it doesn’t exhaust them and they get to experience both the thrill and solace that the mountains provide them.

There are plenty of things to do in Kheerganga. While you’re on the trek, there are plenty of quaint villages that will offer the option of a homestay where you can indulge in insightful conversations with the locals, learn more about the history of the place and relish authentic Himachali food.

You also get to traverse the rustic village of Barshaini as you embark on the Kheerganga trek and enjoy stunning views of enchanting forests, and sparkling waterfalls en route. An important fact about Kasol and Kheerganga that travelers should note is that Kasol is the last stop where you’ll find an ATM. 

Also, if your inner adventurer is awakened, then you can also opt for indulging in thrilling activities that Kasol has to offer including trekking, rafting, hiking, and more.
