Hey Wanders,

Lamadugh is basically a bowl shaped open meadow in the Manali Wildlife Sanctuary. It also acts as a camping ground for treks to Rani Sui lake, Khanpari Tibba and Kalihini pass in Himachal Pradesh.

Also, this trek is doable by your own without any guide so you can start early in the morning from Water tank in the Nasogi Village near DPS (Delhi Public School) and you will find a trail from there, there are two ways to reach lamadugh one is offbeat trail and one is Manali wildlife sanctuary trail which will be little long then the other one so I would suggest you to take another route while you are going to Lamadugh and on your way back take wildlife sanctuary trail so that you will experience all together different landscapes both the time.
