Julley Everyone,
Beautiful morning out here today in the Himalayas as welcoming of the spring season over here, it truly was the perfect time of the year and my favourite one is the mountains covered with the thick sheet of snow and the sun that just feels like that, it’s giving warmth, Welcome to the spring season and the water on the river, the glacier river that also very less and the perfect time for a cold plunge, calling it the beach of the Himalayas, the beach on the mountains as that’s what my offer to beach location would be here in the mountains, and I thought why not to share these moments with you guys through this post, and so was this beautiful perfect morning over here, somewhere around Manali, closer to a place called Patlikuhal.
Starting of this perfect location where I saw that there was a trail all the way to the river and even the water on the river. It was really very less. We always made sure that the area is safe as the rivers here in the mountains can also be really deep, but this particular season it was that the water it was really less because the snow and ice on the glacier. It was all frozen and the water it was freezing cold. It was sunny day and I thought not to go around and take a cold plunge. Maybe calling it. The ice bath as the water was not literally ice but not cold not less than cold than ice.
There was this perfect trail that just went all the way through the plum farm and the plum. They were also all bloom up as it was also the flowering season across the valley over here in Kullu Valley of Himachal Pradesh. The whole landscape looked so peaceful and so beautiful, and I was literally so excited as it reminded me of the summer days of my childhood when I used to just go and run and then take a dive into the river.
At this particular moment, I have never tried being and also taking a cold plunge so early as it was just even the moments of the March month as the water would be freezing cold, but it was all about just taking a cold plunge in the water and also making the adventure all the Way and now I thought why not to share these moments with you guys through this post so all along the journey, I tried capturing these as many photographs as I could all the way and now sharing it with you guys through this post.
It took us near about 10 to 15 minutes in order to reach closer to the river, all the way through the trail that just went through the mountain closer to the river.
And once we reached at the point from where I remember, I used to go closer to the river and out of surprise, it was no more there as it was taken by the flood last year when the whole area that you see closer to the river, it just gets flooded by water, and there was no trail closer to the river. We literally had no option but rather than just to jump near about 10 feet, all the way over the sand, and so we took the step and just jumped all the way, and the moment when I saw it was quite a lot of length, just jumping in excitement all the way.
So we finally made it closer to the river and the freshness that I could feel was literally so fresh, so beautiful and perfect moment of the day that I would say.
So we finally made it all the way, and it was literally a whole lot of a different experience that I had on the water, my friends, it was freezing cold. The moment when I touched the water, it fell like that I’m not gonna go inside because it was just where you could just shout or scream from the bottom of your heart because it was freezing cold. the coldness I can still remember, but can’t express in words as it was that much cold, but the moment when I got into the water, it was for a while freezing cold, the body just got froze, but it was the freshness that I can’t express the body, felt so fresh, and everything looks so clearer just like after a blackout, I would say a certain spark in the body that would just change the whole system, and that was something that I would express my feeling to.
A wider view of the place where we came all the way through making our way through the trails to the mountain, and here is a wider view that looked something just like this.
So we made it all the way enjoyed and also took the sun bath. I would say after taking cold plunges and dive around the place the water it was not that much deep. The maximum it was at certain point. It was about 6 feet. Not more than that, but in the pea summertime, when the river is full, the water level increases quite a lot and also the whole location. This changes because of high water in the river and also the floods that just makes the changes in the place every season I would say, but it truly was a beautiful experience and I thought why not to share it with you guys through this post, so I tried capturing these photographs in different perspectives and different angles so that you guys could also experience such beautiful moments from these hidden portions around the Himalayas. Sharing this moment of my life that truly was a happy one happy moments from the Himalayas. Do let me know my friends, the photographs or the part of my adventure you like the most in the raw form that I share with the first hand experience directly to you like a narrative story that truly happened and now expressing my feelings with you guys and also expressing my adventures with you, guys, do let me know what part you like the most, and I would love to hear it from you.
Thanks for your precious time. 🙏
Love from the Himalayas. ❤️
