About this trip
Chandratal Trek Package is a spectacular Himalayan adventure in Lahaul and Spiti, Himachal Pradesh, taking you to the famous Chandratal Lake, also known as the “Moon Lake.” Surrounded by rugged mountains, vast high-altitude landscapes, and dramatic Himalayan scenery, Chandratal is one of the most iconic destinations for trekking and adventure travel in Himachal Pradesh.
Unlike forest-heavy Himalayan treks, the Chandratal Trek takes you deep into the unique cold desert landscape of the Lahaul-Spiti region. The route features rocky mountain trails, open valleys, high-altitude terrain, glacial landscapes, and breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks.
Chandratal Trek Route
Manali → Rohtang Pass → Batal → Kunzum Pass → Chandratal Lake → Batal → Manali
The Chandratal Trek route generally approaches the lake through the high-altitude terrain of Lahaul. Depending on the package itinerary, travellers can begin their journey from Manali and travel through Rohtang Pass towards the remote mountain region of Lahaul.
The route continues through Batal and towards Kunzum Pass, one of the major mountain passes connecting Lahaul with Spiti. From the surrounding high-altitude terrain, the trail and approach lead towards the spectacular Chandratal Lake.
The crescent-shaped lake is surrounded by barren mountain slopes and snow-covered peaks, creating a dramatic landscape that is very different from the green valleys of lower Himachal. After exploring Chandratal, the journey returns through the Lahaul route.
