Welcome to Yulla Kanda trekking adventures join me as I explore the stunning landscape , hidden trails and vibrant culture of Yulla Kanda.
Our adventure begin in Theog Shimla district where the weather was challenging. Heavy rain from the last previous night had flooded the area leaving the trails submerged and the path slippery adding to the difficulty.
The weather improved as we moved forward lifting our spirits. After gathering essentials for trek we set off from Tapri village . The journey was nothing short of beautiful lush , landscape , fresh air and the sound of nature accompanied us. Each step brought up closer to adventure and discovery.
We finally reached our base camp location a peaceful spot surrounded by nature’s beauty. After a long day of trekking we set up our tent securing our essentials for the night. As the evening wore on the temperature dropped and the cold air set in. Despite the chill excitement filled the air for the hike to our final destination the next morning.
The morning greeted us with clear skies and the cheerful sound of birds chirping all around. The fresh mountain air was invigorating making it feel like the perfect start to the day. We enjoyed a warm cup of morning tea soaking in the tranquility before packing up and setting out on the next leg of our trek. It was truly a wonderful beginning.
On the beautiful trek we met a friendly dog who was lounging by the trail. He got exited upon seeing us wagging his tail happily. We played with him took a few photos and enjoyed his company. Then the dog joined us on our journey adding an extra dose of joy to our adventure.
We entered a stunning valley surrounded by panoramic views that took our breath away
The wind whispered through the trees adding the screne soundtrack to the landscape. Snow covered mountains loomed in the distance their peak shimmering under the clear sky. The entire scene felt like a hidden gem untouched by the time and full of nature beauty. It was a perfect moment of peace in the heart of nature.
Upon reaching the destination we took a moment to relax and soak in the beauty of the valley below . From the top the view was breathtaking vast and serene. We lay down on the soft grass gazing up at the clear blue sky letting the peacefulness of the moment wash over us . It was a pure bliss a perfect reward for the journey.
The place was even more stunning than I imagined with snow covered peaks surrounding us. Then I saw it the reason I had come . Nested in the Center of a small lake stood a beautiful Krishna temple its reflection shimmering in the water . A crystal clear stream flowed nearby adding to the temples serene beauty making the entire scene feel like a sacred oasis.
I made my way to the Center of the lake rager to see the temple up close. The crystal clear water reflected the ancient structure in all its glory. As I approached I marveled at the intricate carving and the timeless architecture of the Krishna temple . It felt like stepping into history the craftsmanship telling stories of the generations past.
Sitting near the temple at the foot of the lake with the chill glacier water refreshing my body I feel deeply connected to nature. The serene surroundings coupled with the pristine beauty of the landscape offer a sense of tranquility.
At last we made a move to the top of the cliff to see what’s behind and asked the local guy about the place which you can see behind me he told us that this trek is connected from different routes local people come here from there nearly and esseble routes. It’s been covered with snow from December to March .
