Himachal Pradesh is an abode of Gods and Goddess, land of fair and festivals, snow covered mountains, holy lake, hot water springs, pilgrimage, picturesque beauty and a virtual paradise for trekkers and adventure sports lovers. It is lying in the lap of Himalaya with an elevation of 500 meters to 6800 meters. Some of the lower regions are hot in summer and where as the higher parts at extremely cold in winter. Himachal has its border with Uttaranchal, Haryana, Panjab and Jamu & Kashmir states also with Tibet.
Himachal is the play ground for Adventure activities. In summer one can go for camping, trekking, mountain climbing, rock climbing water sports, Heli skiing, hang gliding etc. fishing specially Trout and Mahaseer is also another attraction.
Trekking is not merely a mountain walk, rather it is an exploration of every thing that resides within the mountain range. It is a journey beyond the confines of nature and is also a rendezvous with the cultural diaspora that vibrates within the mountaneous range. Above all, it is a complete and unique experience which satisfies adventurous ambitions and provides inner fulfilment. Most people return from the Himalayas profoundly moved by this experience, but for some of us it completely changes our lives. The influence it exerts becomes irresistible and we find ourselves longing to make that annual pilgrimage to those most cherished mountains.
Nestled in the Himalayas, the world's mightiest mountain ranges, Himachal is blessed with some of the most spectacular landscapes anywhere. Truly a travelers paradise, with mighty snow peaks, deep gorges, lush green and golden valleys, flower filled meadows, misty woods, fast flowing icy rivers, glaciers and enchanting lakes. While the picturesque valleys of Kullu, Kinnaur and Kangra are a riot of colors, in marked contrast the barren terrain of Lahaul & Spiti have a stunning lunar landscape like beauty. For the visitor there are superb locations for relaxing and sight seeing.

Some of the popular treks from this valley include a l0 day walk from Baijnath to Chamba and Manali.
