Itinerary description

|
Show original
We start the day taking the descent of the previous day. It is more moderate, although there are some more technical sections. We also step back on snow accumulated in the mountains from the avalanches that form.
Once the descent is over, we reach Chariu (3300 meters), where a mini-bus is waiting for us to carry the horses' luggage and will take us to Chandratal. We go for a path where only the most well-prepared cars can do it in conditions, as there are steps with water, stones and sometimes the path is quite airy.
However, after four hours, we arrive at a space prepared to camp in Chandratal and then return to take the mini bus to go to Lake Chandratal. You can not finish arriving in motor vehicles, so we walk about 5 minutes until arriving and contemplate the beauty of the landscape, this time much more desert and without vegetation.
