Kullu Sarahan - A Wonderful place for camping on a lush green valley in the middle of snow covered hills of Shrikhand Mountain Ranges

Sometimes when I am asleep, a faraway call beckons me to it. It is the mountains calling. I know. How can I not know? The spirit of the mountains dwells in me and is an inseparable part of my being. And every so often, I have that urge to pack my things and go back to the place where I belong - to the beautiful hills of Himachal.

Here is a photograph of surrounding hills and Moon going down in early morning @ Kullu Sarahan, Himachal Pradesh... We had a one day trek to the nearest snow covered peak and had great fun there .... Whole trek was full of waterfalls, small water streams and can't explain the natural beauty in words... One has to be there to feel the freshness of the place... Even I was imagining about a video camera which can also capture the real time freshness of the place.. The way wind flows and sudden welcome by clouds & rains... Hope someone is listening to my wish and produce such a product so that Travelling Camera can share the real view of the place...




Here is a photograph of main temple which was in the middle of habitat region of Sarahan Village... Very colorful with lot of artworks and unique architecture... When I was there witnessing the scene of snow covered hills behind the temple, the only thing came into my mind was "CLOSER TO GOD" ... This is the caption I give to this photograph...



There are wonderful water streams around Sarahan Village and there are lot of trekking options ... There is a village called Jaon which is opposite to Sarahan Village... Jaon is the pint fro where Shrikhand Trek starts and its a wonderful trek through various hills, forests, clouds, snow and what not... One can trek to nearest snow covered hills during one day only... Some of the folks from Sarahan village used to go to Bangar because by road its more than double the distance through snow covered mountains...



There are beautiful waterfalls around the village and at a particular moment I though that god has done best planning to make this place most beautiful to live... Now its Himachal Government's turn to think and provide appropriate facilities like good road, at least two buses in morning/evening etc... Its very isolated place and one needs to walk 11 kilometers to catch a bus...



Here is a photograph of our camp inside the campus of Government school... Yes, there are two schools in th village, one is primary for students till 5th class and a high school till 10 class... After that children need to go out of the village for studying further... Almost every children in the village go to school and that why Himachal is one of the top states in India with nice literacy rate...



Here is a huge ground in Sarahan which is surrounded by various fields, water streams, waterfall and has wonderful view to nearest snow covered hills... Chajjiar in Chamba and Bijli Mahadev in Kullu came into my mind when I saw this place....



School Children having sunbath along with their regular studies... What a fun of having studies such a place... That's why we hear of most of the boarding schools in Hills... Doon School, Dalhousie Public School etc... All of these students have to walks around 3-6 kilometers to reach school from their villages...



Here is a close-up of snow covered hills around Sarahan school in Kullu, Himachal Pradesh...



Local crops of Sarahan Village... I wanted to explain about his crop but not sure if its right or not...



Another waterfall which we saw while trekking towards nearest peaks with snow....



We encountered another waterfall as moved up and there was a beautiful lake near it... I have many photographs of that lake and will be posting them soon...



Huge trees near village shops... There were three shops in the village where one can get all the grocery material, one tea shop & stationary for school childrens...



A typical design of most of the houses in the village... Two storey houses with sloped roofs having a nice varandah in the front etc... Spacious and beautiful !!!
