    Day 1

    Manali – Shangchar – Thoti

    Thoti Thāch is upland near Manali situated between Bulti Huwe and Porang Dogri. From Manali we will start our trek to Thoti. The route is very serene and you will cross several small meadows, high standing deodar and pine forests and reach to Thoti via Sangchar

    Day 2

    Thoti – Maylee

    Today’s trek is one of the toughest treks in our schedule. Today we will start our trek from the middle of the jungle and end it at the plains of Maylee thach. This is one of the most beautiful sites of Saurkundi trek. You will witness the snow capped peaks all around you and camp will be on the snow. Sunset and sunrise will be the most beautiful sights in this camp.

    Day 3

    Maylee – Sarkundi Pass – Maylee

    This day is the most critical day of our trek; because we will be crossing the Sarkundi pass today. We will start our journey a little bit early as compared to other days. Because at noon it is not easy to walk on the snow. We will be at the top of the peak today and can see the many famous peaks from there.After Saurkundi passes we will have an amazing experience of sliding on the ice of almost 1 KM. Today our stay will be at Maylee

    Day 4

    Maylee Thach – Longa

    Today’s trek seems to be easy as we have to descend only, but take care of your feet properly because chances of foot injury are high today. Today camp will be in the middle of Jungle.
