Kareri Lake

Reviewed By imnomadgirl

We highly recommend this trek. Offbeat and less crowded. We trekked with thetravelmonk.com . everything was managed by them 3D-2N Package EX-Dharamshala, incl Trek, Guide Stay, Food and Bus stand transfers. Everything was very well managed. River camping on day-1 was an add-on and provided complimentary. you have to ask for it. Toilet facility(Western) was a relief. As there were none at the location. Highly recommended for Lady trekkers. Proper sanitization of camps and sleeping bags was done. Contact-8146654329 for details.

Reviewed By Vagatravell - Jaipur District, India

A really good temple. Although it's in a very narrow lane. So it is advisable to leave ur vehicle outside the lane somewhere if travelling by ur own car.

A staircase in between the temples of Shitlamata and Ambika Devi leads to the Sheesh Mahal where a small hall-like compartment is designed with a block of stone at the edge of which a polygonal watch tower is installed.
