The trek to Chandratal the “Moon Lake" is almost like going to the moon. You almost feel like the first explorers going to a new place for the first time. The landscape and the scenery change ever so quickly with each sighting bettering the one before. This is till you reach the lake! The lake seems to mesmerize you with its various shades and is like a fairy left alone in this great Himalayan setting of towering mountains.
This moderately difficult trek is also provides one with an opportunity to get to as high of 4800 m without too much difficulty.
Joy and excitement of this trek: With the opening of the road from Manali to Leh various new areas for trekking have opened up. One of the most fascinating of these is the Lahoul Valley, drained by two mighty rivers, the Chandra and the Bhaga. Both start on a 16,000 ft (4,890 m) pass - the Baralacha la - in opposite directions and later join each other to form the Chenab, which is one of the biggest tributaries of the Indus. This trek explores the upper reaches of the Chandra River and goes up to its source on the Baralacha la, where it joins the Manali/Leh highway. The highlight of the trek is Chandra Tal or Moon Lake. This trek that leads to the high-glaciated lake is not to be confused with The Lake of the Moon (Chandratal - in the Spiti region). This trek leads out of the tiny village of Khanul, a little distance away from Manali and climbssteadily throughevergreen forests and meadows, alongside numerous streams. An easy trek with some of the most beautiful walks in Manali region unfolds the most magnificent mountain escapes.
