Beas Kund

ब्यास कुंड

The icy source lake of the Beas River. You can reach it by a 2–3 day trek from Solang Valley, with close views of peaks such as Hanuman Tibba.

Beas Kund lies in a glacial basin at about 3,700 metres, north of Solang Valley. It is the source of the Beas River, and legend says the sage Vyasa once bathed here. The route starts in Solang Valley and passes Dhundi and Bakarthach. It takes 2–3 days return. Along the way you will find alpine meadows, moraines and waterfalls, with Hanuman Tibba, the Seven Sisters peaks and other snow mountains in view. It is the entry-level high-altitude trek around Manali. You need a guide and camping gear. The weather changes quickly, so keep warm.
