These are inhabited at elevations of 7,000 feet (2,100 m) to 11,000 feet (3,400 m) above sea level. Roads are poor, with few of them surfaced.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These are probably the remotest areas of Himachal Pradesh that see only a handful of tourists in a year. If you are looking for an offbeat place where you can spend some time away from the city; as well as crowded popular tourist destination; then Pangi Valley is the place that promises to give you plenty of scenic beauty and solitude.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are into photography, amateur or professional, and want to shoot some mesmerizing lush landscapes; then a visit to Pangi Valley is must.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_80 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Quick Navigation<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69eb2b67b518c\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999999;color:#999999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999999;color:#999999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69eb2b67b518c\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/hudan-bhatori-beautiful-hudan-lake\/#Day_5_Killar_PWD_Rest_House\" >Day 5: Killar PWD Rest House<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/hudan-bhatori-beautiful-hudan-lake\/#Day_6_and_7_Forest_Rest_House_at_Hudan_Bhatori\" >Day 6 and 7: Forest Rest House at Hudan Bhatori<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/hudan-bhatori-beautiful-hudan-lake\/#Day_8_Killar_PWD_Rest_House\" >Day 8: Killar PWD Rest House<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/hudan-bhatori-beautiful-hudan-lake\/#Day_9_Chhota_Manali\" >Day 9: Chhota Manali<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/hudan-bhatori-beautiful-hudan-lake\/#Day_10_11_Sarchu\" >Day 10 &amp; 11: Sarchu<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/hudan-bhatori-beautiful-hudan-lake\/#Day_12_13_Kasol_and_return_to_Chandigarh\" >Day 12 &amp; 13: Kasol and return to Chandigarh<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_5_Killar_PWD_Rest_House\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Day 5: Killar PWD Rest House<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We spent two days camping at Sural Bhatori and returned to Killar on Day 5.
