I
along
with
3
of
my
friends
went
for
the
Indrahaar
Pass
trek
with
Manu
Adventures
on
May
12,
2022.
Although
I
have
done
several
one-day
treks,
this
was
the
first
trek
spanning
over
3
nights
and
4
days.
This
was
undoubtedly
the
best
trek
and
I'm
summarizing
my
experience
with
Manu
Adventures
below:
1.
Manu
Bhai:
He
is
an
expert
and
gave
a
detailed
briefing
about
the
trek
before
the
trek
and
answered
all
our
queries
regarding
facilities
at
the
camp,
any
challenges
that
we
might
face
etc.
He
even
agreed
to
include
Day-1
lunch
in
the
package
even
though
it
was
not
included
the
communication
sent
to
him
by
Thrillophilia
(I
had
booked
the
trek
through
Thrillophilia;
nothing
to
complain
about
Thrillophilia
here
as
they
have
been
very
proactive
in
addressing
my
queries
and
accommodating
my
requests).
2.
Camps:
Camp-1
is
located
at
Letta
(we
spent
1st
night
here).
The
camp
site
and
the
tents
are
clean.
Toilet
facility
(2
toilets)
with
running
water
is
available
here.
Quality
and
taste
of
the
food
served
here
is
very
good.
Loved
the
taste
of
Rice
&
Dal.
The
cook
is
super
fast
(pardon
me
for
forgetting
his
name).
Camp-2
is
at
Ilaqa
(stayed
here
on
2nd
and
3rd
nights).
Again
the
tents
are
clean
and
the
camp
site
offers
a
picturesque
view
of
the
glacier
and
the
mountains.
The
food
was
OK
(poori-sabji,
rice-dal
available).
Limited
availability
of
packaged
water
here;
so
need
to
be
judicious.
3.
Guides:
Highlight
of
Manu
Adventure's
offerings
was
the
2
guides
-
Suraj
and
Shivam.
While
Suraj
accompanied
us
from
beginning
till
the
very
end,
Shivam
joined
us
midway
on
Day-2.
Both
the
young
men
know
the
trails
very
well,
are
very
fit,
have
very
good
temperament.
Both
of
them
kept
on
gently
pushing
us
when
we
were
slowing
down
on
the
trek
while
ensuring
that
there
were
no
signs
of
sickness/health
issue.
They
ensured
safety
at
risky
parts
of
the
trek.
We
had
a
lot
of
fun
at
night
(music,
bon
fire
and
chats)
and
also
while
trekking.
Their
"Yo
baba,
full
power"
shouting
pumped
us
up
when
the
terrain
was
wearing
us
down
during
the
trek.
Although
the
mountains
tested
my
endurance
levels,
the
trek
was
fun
because
of
the
guides.
However,
they
can
still
improve
their
engagement
with
the
clients
during
trek.
I
will
definitely
recommend
Manu
Adventures
and
the
guides
Suraj
and
Shivam
for
Triund/Snowline/Ilaqa/Indrahaar
Pass
trek.
