“After 3 trips with JustWravel, I can guarantee that the quality of services and competences of the staff during their trips is incredible. If you are looking for great adventures in Himachal Pradesh with a group of amazing like-minded travelers, JustWravel is your best option. Accommodation (dom tents, swiss tents, hostels or homestay) is always well organised and the staff makes sure you are comfortable in all situations. Be prepared for amazing landscapes when waking up in your dom tents (during the Kareri trek), delicious breakfast prepared by your hosts in Home stays (Grahan Villlage trip), or thrilling activities such as Paragliding (Bir Billing trip). I especially loved the moments around the bone fires singing, playing and discussing life with other travelers. My trek leader Rahbar was so talented in making every one included in the group and creating a group cohesion. He insured safety first at all times, while making this trip memorable for all of us! I fully recommend JustWravel for travelers of all ages, all nationalities, all background, may you be a solo traveler, in a couple, or with a group of friends. It's just an incredible experience!”

“Monsoon is the season where we stick to our home more than going outside. We generally love rain but avoid enjoying it, it's not because we don't want to have fun but because living in cities takes away our playground where we can have that open blissful rain. I was looking forward to go a place where i can find peace and it should be surrounded by mountains and this time i wanted to go for a little difficult trek so while checking lots of blogs, i came across this. Seeing the terrain, a voice came, lets do this and at that time i was already late for booking but Heema from justwravels really helped me out and arranged two seats for me and my friend after that we met shiddesh (trek leader) who is really a helpful man! During whole trip he really cared about the each member of the group, i can say that he's a street smart even without a doubt. Moving forward to the trek, i can personally suggest that Monsoon is one of the best time to visit kareri lake. When you see clouds around you and realize that you are in heaven, trust me that feeling is blessing. A special thanks to shiddesh aka leader. Thank you for making our journey a beautiful one! A note to my journey: Wait for me! I'm not the wind who will take away your fears neither the snow who will make you smile on Christmas nor rain who gonna make you calm. I'm the cloud who will listen to you and gonna fade when you'll start to discover my presence. - NUPUR”

“I was my third trip with Justwravel. There might be some reason na why I Chose them over again. Yes, there are n number of reasons. There trip leads are really good at managing the things and provide best suggestions at good times. Owner Rohan is really so humble and polite and guides well on how to choose the trip with them. Be it Parashar; Kareri or Spiti expedition, I have choosen JW everytime and yes, my choice was worth it. Moreover, have received the same reviews from the mates whom I suggested JW and they opted them . Give this team a chance to take you to places; you will also definitely choose them again.

“I went to kareri trek. It was a wonderful trek. Rahbar, Vinod and Sanjeev provided everything. They made the trek as easy and comfortable as they can. During a trek, a point comes where you give up to move further, but they were continuously encouraging to all to keep moving. It was an amazing experience with them all.”

The Kareri Lake trek is absolutely stunning despite its proximity to the town’s traffic jams in summer. The Kareri Lake trail goes through the Kareri village, which is close to Dharamshala and the pine forests that follow.
Kareri lake is named after the village which is located at a distance of 9km away from the lake. An interesting fact about Kareri Lake is that it’s also known as Kumarwah Lake. Once on the Kareri Lake trek, the forests get denser and you might be able to spot a Blue Magpie even. Kareri Village has a ‘Forest Rest House’ and a few more places that sell basic amenities. In fact, some of the houses may even offer the facility of a night’s stay.
The itinerary of the Kareri Lake trek includes trekking to Rioti village from Kareri village. The Nyund River will accompany us on our trek here. This stream is the outflow of the snow melting from the Dhauladhar range. The melting snow is also the source of Kareri lake.
Speaking of the Dhauladhar range, the lake also serves as the base for further trekking to reach there. One can also go to Bharmour and Chamba via the Baleni Pass and Minkiani Pass. The locals have also laid a lot of steps for convenience. This has definitely helped Kareri Lake trekking as hospitality is shown.
Once at Kareri lake, you can also hike for another 30 minutes up to Gajj. Kareri Lake itself does not have any accommodation options. However, you can stay overnight at Rioti or set up a campsite by the lakeside. The Kareri lake even remains frozen from December to March.
Don’t forget to bring appropriate gear along with you for this, though. This option isn’t really recommended during winter because it gets way too cold at night for your comfort so it’s best to get back to the village.
The history of Kareri Lake involves religious importance. A very popular attraction near Kareri Lake is a temple that’s dedicated to Lord Shiva and Shakti. This ancient temple overlooks the beautiful lake and is situated on a hilltop.
Near Kareri lake, you’ll also find a few gaddi kothis. These are grazing grounds used by the Gaddis for their cattle. This is an important aspect of the culture of the villagers from Kareri. Out of all of these attractions, the most adventurous one is obviously the trek. There are plenty of things to do during the Kareri Lake Trek.
Trekkers can also take part in activities like Tyrolean Traversing and participate in local tours. What’s Tyrolean traversing, you ask? It’s a method of crossing between two high points through the free space between them. People do this without a hanging cart on a rope.
The Kareri Lake trek is less explored and offers great scenic views of valleys and mountain ranges. The difficulty level of this trek varies from easy to moderate and hence it is suitable for both beginners as well as experienced ones.
