What makes Mandi a must-visit destination?

The princely state of Mandi is located within the Union of India. With Bilaspur as its capital, the state is as expansive as approximately 232,598 kilometers which reduced to approximately 1,139 square kilometres after the division was made. The state of Mandi is home to two large towns and approximately 3,625 villages. Filled with beautiful hills and simplistic atmosphere, it is a perfect weekend getaway for all those looking to get away from their bustling city life for a while.

There is much historic importance that this place signifies. Stories suggest that during the period of 1290 when the Rana of Banglaor succeeded the Siokot state, he was the first that can be credited for naming Mandi as the new capital of the Northern region. It was only later in the year 1954 that Mandi was incorporated into the state of Himachal Pradesh as the Mandi district.

Tourism industry is thriving in this city, as well. While the location is expansive by nature, there are numerous hotels, restaurants and resorts that embark upon this beautiful holiday destination for tourists and visitors to have a comfortable time in.

The beauty of the lake is unbelievable. So splendid from all angles. The temple, the floating lake in the middle of pure green meadows were really an epic view. Trek was quite easy. I went along with my partner. We literally enjoyed it from the bottom of our hearts. At this price, it was great an experience. No pollution or no traffic. rarely any people we saw on the route, especially the last stretches of the trek. Very beautiful climate also though it rained at times. They have arranged proper stay and food too. Thanks.

We were a group of 50 students who went on a trip booked through thrillophilia. We had two stops in our journey, Kullu, and Prashar Lake. Kullu: We reached Kullu after an overnight bus journey. There were 10 tents, each with clean attached bathrooms. The tents were in a secluded area by the riverside. The location was beautiful and private. We did river rafting (around 4 kms) and rope activities by the day time. Around the evening, we all enjoyed by the bonfire. You can also walk around the streets during the day, and get a feel of the place. All in all, it was a very memorable experience. Next morning, we left for Mandi in a bus, and then left for trekking to Prashar Lake. It was a picturesque 7 km trek, doable for beginners. The view was extremely scenic especially at the top. There were 14 tents for all us, and a sleeping bag for each (The temperature had really fallen due to a hailstorm). Tasty food was served by the lake . There was a great view of snow-clad mountains from the location. All in all, the place was very serene and beautiful. One drawback was, that there were just three dirty bathrooms for 50 people. This trip is very suitable for adventurous people wanting a break from the city life in a destination which is not overcrowded.

Prashar lake is a perect trek for anyone looking for a 2 days of wilderness. Am happy that i did this trek and even more happy that i booked it from thrillophilia. all the arrangements from food, camps, bonfire, guides were on time and of top quality. Morning yoga and Meditation around the lake was very refreshing.

Booked: Trekking And Camping At Riverside Camp Barot

It was one of the best treks we have ever had! Camping next to the river was such a great experience. The beautiful hills and forests made it a perfect place for setting the camp. We had a very good time relaxing next to the bonfire at night. It is definitely one of the best camping experiences ever!

I had been on this trek with my group of friends. Its a beautiful place with such natural beauty and amazing surroundings. It was a very refreshing experience as we felt really energized and had loads of fun. The bonfire at night was also great. A must try for all adventure lovers.
