About Kareri Lake Trek

Located at an altitude of 9,625ft, Kareri Lake is a freshwater lake surrounded by greenery and a massive Dhauladhar range. This trek takes you through rocky grasslands and oak & pine forests. In case, you are looking for an amazing adventure in a short time then you must definitely plan for the Kareri lake trek. 

Kareri lake is located almost 9km away from Dharamshala in the Kangra district. With the change in season, the temperature at Kareri lake also varies. In the summer season, the temperature here goes to almost 43 degrees during the day. On the other hand, the temperature might be in the negatives in the winters. If you would like to experience the beautiful flora and fauna of the area then the spring season is the best time to go for the Kareri lake trek. It is always better to avoid the monsoon season because the Kangra district receives the maximum amount of rainfall. As a result, the route to this lake gets slippery and dangerous, leading to serious accidents. Located in the regal Dhauladhar range, the glacial Kareri lake trek is sure to take you through the most attractive sights like dense conifers, lush paddocks as well as colorful perennial flowers. 

Kareri lake trek is quite famous among trekkers and nature lovers who love spending some quality time close to nature. On your journey to Kareri lake, you will notice several vintage landmarks that offer a stunning sight of the neighboring mountains and valleys as well. While trekking, as you gain in height, the flora will continue to change. In the starting, you will find pine and broadleaf but slowly, it will change in grasslands and patches of deodars and pine. During the most trail, you will come across small beautiful waterfalls and bubbling streams. Kareri lake trek is considered the best weekend adventure trek for people who wish to try Himachal trails apart from Prashar lake, Kheerganga, and Triund. When heading towards Kareri lake, you will also find appealing shepherd towns that have their personal charm. On your way, you will also come across the Lord Shiva temple that is worth visiting. Kareri lake trek is also a perfect trek for people who love watching the bird. The area near the lake is no less than a paradise for bird-watching lovers. During the trek, you will witness different species of birds that are only found in the mountain regions. It is an easy trek and perfect for beginners. In case, you are looking forward to changing your mood from the monotonous routine and spending some time in the lap of nature then you must plan for a trek to Kareri Lake. On this trail, you have to go through straight roads, river crossings over the wooden bridge, and steep ascents. This makes it important for you to have little knowledge about trekking and proper gear. Therefore, before resting in the tents, make sure you invest some time in clicking mesmerizing pictures of nature that are worth capturing.

Kareri Lake Trek (Detailed Itinerary)

In order to get ready for an exciting trek, all the trekkers need to report to the Mcleodganj or Dharamshala, then we start drive to Kareri village. On day 01, we will trek for almost 4-5 long hours but in the last, you will find that the entire journey is fruitful and rewarding. 

The trail towards Rioti camp goes along the narrow mountainous river that needs to be crossed. While trekking, you will find that some crossings consist of makeshift bridges and others have to be crossed by just walking on riverine boulders. 

Night stay is scheduled in a camp that will be surrounded by gorgeous alpine grassland. Hot & Delicious will be served.

The 4 hours of trekking along the mountains is going to take you to the base of Minkiani pass, where the Kareri lake is located. It is the most charming part of your complete trip. First, the trekkers need to walk on a rocky, narrow, and muddy track along with forested mountains and a river gorge on the other side.  

Since the region is not too high, you will find beautiful coniferous and deciduous trees on your way to Kareri lake. As you continue your trek for Kareri lake, you will gain height and the vegetation will also turn out to be less dense.  

Night stay for all the trekkers will be arranged in camps which are surrounded by pretty meadows. From the campsite, you can also see Minkiani pass and Baleni pass. 

Day 03 is going to be long but not really tough because we will descend generally. Wake up early in the morning in order to witness the mesmerizing sunrise of the mountains. After having lunch, we will trek back to Kareri village and drive back to Dharamshala. This will mark the end of your journey with sweet memories.
