Following the course of the Alaknanda River beyond Mana - the last village on the Indian frontier - the trail gradually leaves behind signs of habitation and enters a raw, glacial landscape of moraine fields, sweeping valleys and towering peaks like Chaukhamba standing sentinel in the distance. The emerald, triangular lake of Satopanth - believed to be holy meditative ground of the Gods and divine sages of Hindusim - reveals itself quietly.

A trip graded as a Moderate Trek takes you to high altitude regions - above 3000m / 10,0000ft and will involve considerable altitude gain over the course of the trek. Altitude will have an effect, hence one would need to be careful about acclimatization. Moderate treks will have multiple days which involve considerable amount of ascents and descents and would require walking for more than 6 hours. There might be a day or two of camping in relatively high altitudes above 4000m / 13,000ft. A typical trek will last around a week to ten days depending on the region and is a good step-up for people who have completed a beginner trek. Good fitness levels are needed to enjoy these trips. Some training up before the trip would help. Prior trekking experience is desirable.
