Wow, Ashok Ji. That looks like one hell of a trip. Now, doing this trip is far easier. There are no roads even now, but the cars available can negotiate the kuchcha roads. My most memorable moment at Chandratal was when I stepped out at night and it looked like all the stars have come down, and if jump a bit I can catch those stars.

Please share the names of your books, I will check them out on Amazon.

Do stay connected, and keep sharing your experiences.

Dear Anuradha,
Came across your lovely site by chance and loved it! My affair with Chandratalbegan in 1987 when I first saw it. We had spent anight at Batal and asked the driver to drop us at Kunzim Pass from where we trekked to Chandratal,had a dip in the cold waters of the Tal, then trekked back to Batal along side the river as there was no raod of any kind,crossing innumerable nalahs,reached Batal at eight for dinner.Then after dionner we drove back to Manali at 2.30 at night! That was one marathon I doubt many can do! Mind you, there were no raods at all.Dead tired after a long an d most strenuous day.I have done 24 books on photography so far an dthis trip was in connection with my first book on Himachal,did two more later on.

In reply to Niraj Sharma.

Niraj, I visited Chandratal in mid-July and I believe August is a good time to visit Chandratal. You can contact Parasol camps, they have tented camps very close to the lake – just about couple of kilometers away.

It can be very hot during the day and extremely cold during the night – so pack accordingly. Do not miss sky watching at night – it is the most mesmerising experience.
