Friendship Peak Trek, Himachal Pradesh
One of the most famous summits for trekking in the Indian Himalayan region, the Friendship peak looming at an elevation of 5,289 meters in the Pir Panjal range in Himachal Pradesh is a trekker's paradise. From the summit, one can feast his eyes on the panoramic view of the Pir Panjal range, against the back of silver horizons formed by the Dhauladhar and Great Himalayan ranges. The Friendship Peak Trek is one of the most challenging treks in Himachal Pradesh and before trekking here, one should have prior high experience of traveling at high altitudes. The journey passes through the beautiful Solang Valley, featuring several alpine meadows, thick forest dotted with varied species of alpine trees, colorful orchards, and crisscrossed by numerous small and gushing streams. The trail will start throwing challenges when at a high altitude, tourists will have to climb over the thick bed of snow and trek over glaciated tracks and narrow ridges. Other than the breathtaking horizon, the major attractions on the Friendship Peak Trek are Hadimba Temple in Manali, the hot water springs of Vashisht, and Naggar Roerich Art Gallery.
