About the Destination:
The Kareri village is a beautiful Himalayan village, lying at a distance of 40km from Dharamshala in the Kangra District of Himachal Pradesh. Kareri village leads the way to Kareri Lake, a high-altitude freshwater glacial lake situated at a height of 2950m above sea level. In Kareri village, there is another village known as Nohli village, from where the Kareri Lake trek begins. The distance of the Kareri Lake trek is 10 kilometers one way, and the trekking grade is moderate to hard.
The best time to visit Kareri Lake is from starting March to the end of June. During this period, the trek is covered with a layer of snow, and the summit is adorned with glaciers. Kareri Lake gives birth to a beautiful river known as Niyund. The midpoint of the trek is Reoti. The Kareri Lake trek further leads to one of the world’s most beautiful unexplored treks, known as the Seven Sister Lakes of Dhauladhar (a group of seven lakes together) through the well-known pass, Minkiani Pass.
The thick forest of deodar, oak, pine, and waterfalls along the way make this trek one of the most beautiful in the whole world.

Had an amazing experience on the Kareri Lake trek with Kareri Hikers, especially for a first-time trekker like me. The team was very professional, friendly, and took care of everything from stay and meals to guiding us safely on the trail. The route from McLeodganj to Kareri village is very scenic with forests, streams and beautiful mountain views, and the difficulty level is perfect for beginners who are reasonably fit. Our campsite near the lake was clean and comfortable, and the food was simple but very tasty, giving a homely feeling far from the city. Overall, it was a memorable trek with stunning views, good arrangements, and great hospitality – I would definitely recommend Kareri Hikers to anyone planning their Kareri Lake trek.
