Day 1

I have started my trip from new Delhi railway station and board my train to pathankot in the night 8:45 pm. 

Day 2

I have reached to pathankot at 7 am because train was late and went to the bus stand. If you reach before 6 am then it will be easy for you because you can get direct bus to Hadsar which is the starting point of trek to Manimahesh Kailash. But if you don't then we have to take a different bus to Bharmour  which is avilable before 10 am and it is last direct bus to bharmour and then take another bus or cab to Hadsar and if you didnt get direct bus to Bharmour then no need to worry you can take bus to Chamba then take another bus to Bharmour and then Hadsar.  Luckily I got a bus for chamba but due to some traffic jam i got late and reached at 7 pm in the night at chamba and after that i have taken a cab and reached to hadsar at 9 pm. And there are langar sewa is there you can stay there if you dont have any problem you can take prashad and take dinner otherwise there are rooms available you can go there which is not too costly.As I was alone I have stayed in the Langar because my father is a member of langar committee (Sriganganagar Langa Sewa, Rajasthan) I had stayed there and it is not compulsory that if you are from Sriganganagar than only you can stay there. If you want to stay and have food then you can go there anytime 24*7 from where ever you came from. So, i have stay there and take rest.

Day 3

After taking bath in the morning and doing pooja of my Mahadev. I have started my trek from Hadsar at 7 am. My first point was Dhancho which was 6km from hadsar. you can stay there and take some rest and have some food if you want but i had continued my trekking and reached to my next point Gauri Kund which is 6 km from Dhancho. Here only ladies can take a bath no gents are allowed here to take a rest. Generally, people are staying here for a night and in the next morning they start there journey of next 1 km for Manimahesh Lake take a bath in the holy water and do the  Manimahesh Kailsh darshan. But i move forward on the same day.and return back to my langar sewa in night at 8:30 pm.

Day 4

After taking a rest i have started my jouney to bhramour via taxi and went to chaurasi Temple  which is temple of shiv having 84 shivlings there. After doing the darshan of Mahadev I have started my trek for Bharmani Mata Temple  which is of 4 km trek you can take cab for there but i went by trekking. It is complusory to go Bharmani Mata Temple if you have come to Manimahesh otherwise yatra will not be completed. There take a bath and do the darshan of Mata. And then I have taken the cab for bhramour bus stand and from there I have taken the bus for chamba and from chamba I have taken the bus for pathankot bus stand.From there you have to take a auto to go pathankot cant railway station.Because you are getting the train from Pathankot Cant.I have taken the train and reached to delhi railway station in the morning .
