Overview
LADY OF KEYLONG EXPEDITION
The inhospitable and parched environments of Lahoul and Spiti are home to the mountain peak known as Lady of Keylong. The British Lady Elashaingh day inspired the naming of this place, hence it became known as Lady of Keylong. The Lady of Keylong was also reported by the later Geological Survey of India. As a result, it’s possible that the moniker Lady of Keylong was recognised all over the globe. Nonetheless, the mountain does really seem what its name says, since snow can be seen on it during virtually the whole year. Despite this, the black spots of rock in the heart of the mountain have not been covered up. These rocky outcrops form a figure that seems like a woman carrying something on her back as she walks. The figure is visible from Keylong, which is a significant town and the capital of the Lahoul valley. The Lady of Keylong is a technically challenging mountain that offers a wide variety of climbing opportunities. There aren’t many places to set up camp along the trail, but the terrain is rugged and difficult, and you’ll have to contend with harsh weather and high elevations as well. Read More

Day2- From Manali to Tinno village base camp
It takes around three hours to drive from Manali to the settlement of Tinno in Lahaul. The trip from Manali to Tinno village covers around 70 km in its whole. Manali is the location from where we will set out first thing in the morning. During the course of the trip, we will be passing through a community that is known as Shooling. Although the roads in this area are not particularly hazardous, winter driving conditions may make for a challenging commute. After we have crossed the Tandi Bridge, we will continue on to the Tinoo village. Once there, you will likely unpack your bags and then go on to the campground or the base camp, depending on which one you have reserved. Too Village is a breathtaking community that is encircled on all sides by fertile agricultural land and a diverse assortment of tree species.
Day3- From base camp to load ferry to camp1
After arriving at base camp on Day 3, we will have everything prepared for you and the rest of the team. The findings indicate that the base camp has access to cellphone networks. Once you have arrived at the base camp, the next days will be spent participating in the load ferries, which is yet another incredible aspect of the expedition.
The guides at Himalayan Adventure Trips will provide you with extensive assistance and direction in all aspects of the activity. You need to be aware that the next few days are going to be challenging due to the fact that the weather is going to be really severe and there is going to be snow and ice everywhere.
Day 4: The Beginning of Setting Up Camp 1
On day 4, we will go to the first campground we have reserved. During the course of this adventure, you will be travelling on a path that is not typical, and it will be covered in snow and ice rocks.
Day 5: From Camp 1 to Load ferry to camp 2
We will be ferrying cargo today, which means we will be rolling them up and down hills till we reach our destination, which is our camp. The day is going to be quite hectic. Following the completion of this day, we will make our way to the campground, which is not going to be an easy ascent due to the fact that we are going to encounter snow, hard rocks, and ice along the route, which will be an exciting but challenging experience.
Day 6: The Beginning of Setting Up Camp 2
The seventh day of our journey will be spent at camp site 2, where we will set up our base, get some much-needed rest, and begin our preparations for the subsequent days of travel. Afterwards, we will move closer to our ultimate objective.
Day 7: Moving up to Summit Camp from Camp 2
On day 7, we will make our way up to the summit camp from camp 2 where we started. There is sufficient open space in the vicinity of the summit campgrounds, making it simple to set up tents there. Following a little period of relaxation, we will begin our ascent towards the highest point. During the course of the ascent, you will come across numerous peaks that are stunning to see in their whole. After such an exhilarating trip, we will soon be at the peak, which is our final destination, in a few hours. This has been our ultimate aim the whole time. There, at an elevation of approximately 6061 metres, we shall rejoice in our win.
After accomplishing such a significant triumph, we are going to relax and take the day off. The eighth day will serve as a buffer day for us, during which you will be free to sleep as much as you want in anticipation of our departure for base camp 2 the following day.
Day 9: Reaching the Top and Heading Back to Camp 2
We will get rolling, and then we will depart the peak and begin our descent towards the second camping spot. Following the completion of all of our surfing, we will resume our adventure. As you make your way towards camp 2, you will discover that the trek is far simpler than it was previously.
On day 10, we will break camp at our second location (camp 2) and go to our first location (campsite 1). You may be worn out at this point, but our local staff from Himalayan Adventure Trips will be there to cheer you up, and we will make sure that the last day is just as spectacular as the day before it.
Day 11: From Tinno Village to Manali
On day 11, we will depart from the beautiful Tinoo Village and make our way to Manali, which is around 138 kilometres away, before making our way back home. This concludes all of the information that there is to know about the Lady of Keylong voyage.

Guidelines
➽ Preparation for Expedition
During the wonderful Himalayan trek, mind, body, and spirit must all be overcome, as you well know. Precise preparation, with appropriate pliability of observing and confronting circumstances, is essential. Due to the difficulty and unpredictability of expeditions, participation is limited to those who have completed trekking at altitudes of at least 4,500 metres at least four to five times or have finished a Basic Mountaineering course.
The following are some considerations for the Lady of Keylong Expedition:
⦿ Physically – An Expedition requires a lot of physical endurance, therefore you should start working out a month before signing up for a programme. Strengthen your legs by jogging and working out regularly to increase your stamina. To better acclimatise to the environment and increase your resilience on the walk, you should give up smoking and undertake breathing exercises twice a day. Participate wholeheartedly in sports, Yoga, and other cardiovascular activities. Sometimes you have to climb for 20 hours straight, therefore you need to be ready to push yourself to the maximum, which is only possible with well-defined pre- and post-climb training.
⦿ Mentally – As essential as physical training is for an Expedition, so too is mental preparation. Relax, enjoy your regular activities, and take care of yourself before embarking on an Adventure. Don’t put yourself through mental anguish by making guesses or planning ahead for the Expedition. Get together with your closest pals to rejuvenate and refocus your thinking. After you join the March and meet the rest of the pack, you will find encouragement and excitement, proving that your pre-expedition preconceptions were unfounded. As you endure the hardships of the journey, both your mental and physical toughness will increase. Hence, as you make your way up to each campground, it’s a good idea to pay attention to different sections of the body and actively relax them. Focus on the path or whatever perilous terrain you must carefully handle when climbing, and attempt to relax your body. Try out a few new walking techniques to add some fun to your commute that has nothing to do with getting anywhere. The best way to keep one’s mind in good shape when traveling is to relax and enjoy the ride.
⦿ Technically –
Choose the right size of trekking or climbing shoes and walk with it, from a technical standpoint. Fill a 60-liter container. Carry as much as you can in your rucksack on a regular basis to become accustomed to walking lengthy distances with it. You should equip yourself with a trekking pole, water bottle, warm socks, thermals, fleece, feather jackets, cap, trousers, poncho, flip flops, and any necessary equipment like a power bank and camera (DSLR or digital camera). Get a sling and use it to perfect the primary knots you’ll need for the ascent.
The rewards of a successful mountain ascent are well worth the effort required to reach the top, which may be as daunting as the mountain itself. The Himalayan Adventure Tours Expedition to Mighty Mountain Kang Yatse awaits your honest participation.

Climbing Hanuman Tibba in August 2019 with Good Company
In the company of Hat, Sameer, Arun, and I climbed to the summit of Hanuman Tibba (at an altitude of 5932 metres). With Shera at the helm as the chief guide, along come Vishal, Panna, and Jaggi, who work together to form a tight-knit, effective, and amiable unit. The majority of our time was spent in a high-quality 4-person tent; the given gear was not brand new but adequate, with the exception of a few small difficulties with one of the sleeping bags. Both the meal and the hot beverages were delicious. Manu was simple to get in touch with before to our adventure, and he answered all of our questions (there weren’t many) thoroughly. Basically, my time spent on adventure with Himalayan Adventure Trips was both personally rewarding and professionally enriching.
