Firstly, this part of the path is simple and well-traveled by locals, allowing you to cover a lot of ground in just a few hours. However, as one leaves the Grahan Nallah behind, the path becomes stony and climbs upward into the Rhododendron forest, away from the river’s right bank. For instance, the forest is filled with rhododendron petals, which are not only edible but can also be used to make a refreshing drink by mixing their syrup with water.
After that, an hour of strenuous climbing leads to Grahan settlement, which is the final inhabited village on this trek. Most importantly, from this point onward, there is no cell network, so staying connected becomes impossible. Therefore, it’s essential to prepare for this lack of connectivity beforehand. In conclusion, you can make your way to the hotel in Grahan for the night and rest before continuing the trek.

After some time, as you continue your trek, you will be able to see Sar Top, Nagaru, and Mung Thach on the mountain to your right.
However, the trek becomes more challenging as you hike up the rugged trail that disappears into the dense forest. Moreover, along with the steepening of the hill, the route also becomes more difficult in some spots. That is to say, this part of the journey tests your endurance. Subsequently, after making your way through the jungle, you will reach your day’s goal—Mung Thach.
From here, most importantly, the view is breathtaking, with the Chandrakhani range and other significant Himalayan peaks clearly visible. In addition, this vantage point allows you to appreciate the vastness of the landscape. In conclusion, spend the night in a jungle camp in Mung Thach, resting and preparing for the next phase of the trek.
Wake up to the sound of a crisp morning wind, a perfect way to begin the next leg of your journey. Afterwards, you’ll set off on the wooded trail that leads from Mung Thach to Nagaru. However, this section of the hike is challenging because the snow can be treacherous, and the slope drops sharply to the valley below. That is to say, you will need to proceed cautiously and stay focused on the path.
After a couple of hours, you’ll reach the Nagaru campground after climbing a difficult ridge. From here, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking views of Manikaran, a picturesque village in the Parvati valley, and the majestic mountains beyond.

Firstly, admire the breathtaking panorama that Biskeri has to offer, which includes the pine woods, towering mountains, and lush green meadows. To descend, you will need to trek over a steep piece of ground that is surrounded by a fence. After that, once you have traversed the thick woodland, you will come across a brook with a campground on the other side.
To clarify, the twin towns of Pulga and Tulga are divided by a creek, and the route leading to the hamlet of Pulga is located to the left of the existing campground. Subsequently, the settlement of Barshaini can be reached by crossing a bridge over the Parvati River, which is located in Tulga.
