| Sahastra Tal is situated near the
border of Uttarkashi & Tehri
District of Garhwal. There are
numbers of Tals (lakes) in this region,
therefore the region is named Sahastra Tal. Most
of the trekkers follow the
Kush
Kalyani
- Kyarki khal trail.
|
| We follow the second route which is via Masap
Tal. There are two lakes situated in the
forest
of
Bamboo
and Rhododendron. The entire route is extremely
difficult but the
beauty of the route immediately
evaporates the feeling of difficulty. The
trekkers sometimes roam in the deep valley and
sometimes they find themselves on the top of
mountains, ultimately we visit the vast
plain of "Bugyal". |
|
The carpet, "Bugyal" gives the
trekkers a feelings of being in paradise,
specially the mist around looks very mysterious.
The moments are unforgettable when the nature
plunges into the mist and suddenly comes out.
First we visit SamTal, then LambTal
and 1 km. ahead of LambTal, their lies LingTal.
Matri Tal lies after 1-1/2 km. from LingTal
and finally the great & vast SahastraTal
lies 3 km. ahead of Matri Tal. Before the
monsoon most of the lakes are frozen.
