We reached Chanshal top on Day 1 and trekked for about 30 minutes and finally found a plain area to camp.
Majestic morning view.
Met some lovely horses in the morning.
Camera could not capture what eyes did.
The Chanshal Valley affords views of hills covered with ice.After experiencing the majestic morning we decided to trek to Saru Lake approximately a 1 hour trek which has a 360 Degree view of mountains covered with snow.
Mountains really can never disappoint you.
Saru tal (lake) is located on the top of one the hills resembling a Thalli.
In the lap of nature.
We covered the whole trek in about 4 hours and were not at all tired after reaching back because of the beauty we got to see.

Chanshal top is quite scenic and a trip here is highly recommended for anyone with interest in travel or photography.
