INDIA MANALI TREK
12-22 JUNE 2009
A delightful trek in the foothills of the Western Himalayas. Situated at the northern end of the Kullu Valley and the Beas River is Manali; known as the "Valley of the Gods", it is a mix of old and new, a modern town on an ancient site. The trek offers beautiful mountain villages, charming people, great flora and fauna and beautiful camping places. The area is famous for its shiny gompas or Buddhist monasteries and we will visit Hindu temples, castles and local schools, to gain a real flavour of life in this region.
There is also a visit to the Taj Mahal and Red Fort in Agra.
