Into The Wild - The Great Himalayan National Park Trek

Tripoto
12th Aug 2016

I went to GHNP with much of my life already lived.. And came back with the rest of my life that I have to live!!

This easiest 1 was indeed the most riskiest 1!!

Trek to Saryolsar is an easy flat beginners trek in the Great Himalayan National Park region which was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2014. The National park is largely unexplored n is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places to explore in the Himachal region..

Last weekend in d midst of the monsoon season..when trekkers usually refrain from venturing deep into the jungle ...we decided to undertake 2 circuit treks covering a total of 16kms .. of which one was to Saryolsar Lake and the other to some unknown view point on the top of a ridge ..which we couldn't reach as we lost our way in the forest..

Though we didnt expect it to be too risky..nor any villager warned us on our enquest ..but after encountering few dead hunted animals n hearing distant roars/ strange voices on couple f occasions.. I precisely got shit scared..but still continued walking deep into the wild..By the time we reached Saryolsar I had lost the count f tyms I requested Sapra to turn back..He just somehow kept his cool !!

Nevertheless this trip did end up making me realize few things:

1. I do believe in God

2. I am not at all brave kyunki Darr mujhko bhi lagta hai &

3. I wont have luck running by my way all the time & I should stop taking such stupid risks!!
