The road coming from Bhunter ends at Tosh, and what follows is pure mystery. Why is nobody able to leave those dimly lit and shabby looking Cafes in Tosh? Is it the force field? Views of snow clad peaks or the # ( hash) that you get? Well their are few mysterious in this world which never get solved.
Their are hundreds of people which come to Kasol and Tosh , and they are fine till the point they enter those cafes. It is like going through Bermuda triangle
.
It all starts with those simple questions... do you serve food? How much is # for ? and show me your Chillum? Endless rounds of Manala stuff, fresh juices, pastas, slow cooked thin crust pizzas with all organic vegetables and fruits, and to top it all the famous Nutella Pancakes.
You roll a joint which makes you crazy hungry , and then you order loads of food and this my friends is a F**kin cospiracy.
Almost all cafes serve excellent food, it is just the views, music and service which makes all the difference. My favorite was Pink Floyd Cafe. As the name suggests, it played good music and slow service, making sure you roll one before the food arrives.
You can trek from Tosh to Kheer Ganga, Shamshi Thach (3,800 m), Animal Pass(4,560 m) or Tosh Glacier (4,300 m). So you could probably stay here for a few days just chilling or take up one of the multi day treks. Even if you are not into trekking, a small hike to Kutla and glacier point is a must. It is a easy hike with small steep patches. En-route you will find some great views and around midway lies a perfect picnic spot right on top of a gushing waterfall between huge rocks.
