CB13 or Chandrabhanga peak is one of the oldest and the contest peak of Himachal. The peak got its name from the 2 famous rivers that are Chandra and Bhanga. In earlier times, an expedition on this peak was very difficult due to the extreme weather conditions and the rocky land. However, after the introduction of the Atal Tunnel, the peak has become more accessible which is why more travelers are longing to give it a try.
The beauty of the whole expedition is beyond words and something different from the others. The wind, the weather, the land, everything is unmissable. June to October is considered the best time for CB 13 expeditions. Check out the whole itinerary of CB 13 with Broza Adventures:-
On The 1st day of our trek, we will start from Manali. Manali is a very popular tourist destination from where we are going to start our CB 13 journey with Broza Adventures. On this day, we will get you all the things including your accommodation. On the same day, our team leaders will instruct you on all the regulations, the weather, and all the other things which are relevant regarding the CB expedition.
Difficulty Level: easy
The distance from Manali to Batal is around 95 km and it takes around 6 hours approx to reach Batal. On day 2 we will leave for Batal early in the morning so that we can reach on time since the roads are not very clear. We will start our drive from the famous Beas River and will pass through the Leh- Manali Highway.
On the way to Batal, we will be having some major checkpoints like Koksar, Chhatru, and Gramphu where we will also take some pit stops at the local food stalls where you can also have some snacks and quench your food cravings.
The last checkpoint is Chhatru from where Batal is just 2-3 hours away. After reaching Batal, you will find a majestic view of the landscape and soothing winds that will touch your body which will make you feel amazing.
On Day 3 we will start with our first load ferry day. We will reach our base camp and stay overnight at Batal. All your dinner requirements will be looked after by Broza Adventures.
On day 4, we will be moving toward our Base camp from where the actual trek starts. The journey from Batal to Camp 1 is a way through the mountains. We will leave for the Base Camp early in the morning as it is going to be a long day ahead.
While on the trek, you will find that the way is full of rocks and dust. It is very important to wear good sports shoes so that you do not face any issues while moving upwards. During the first two hours, we will be crossing several streams. The water level in some of these streams is very high and you have to take careful steps. After some hours, we at Broza Adventures will provide you with a wonderful fresh lunch for the day.
It is suggested that at the end of the day you take enough rest since the next day is going to be a long journey and full of challenges.
On day 5, we will move forward with our load ferry from our base camp to camp 1. We will be taking walks in the region and making our bodies adaptable to the weather This day we will load the ferry and establish camp 1. Camp 1 can be reached after four hours of trekking from the base camp. After crossing a high land just next to our base camp, we will trek on grassy land with a gentle downslope till we reach a spring that is dotted with boulders. After steep climbing, we will reach the path which crosses through the region. Then we will descend one more path which is followed by two patches of moraines. In the last part of the trek, we will have to do some easy bouldering to reach the Camp 1 site. Camp 1 will be made on uneven land with a beautiful view.
On this Day we will start our backward journey. It is yet again an exciting journey with Broza Adventures. We will establish camp 1 from base camp we will start the journey and finally, take a halt at Camp 1.
On day 7, all. of us will be involved in the load ferry work once again. You will be provided with some of the camping equipment for setting up the summit camp. Will will start a summit trek for the entire night. For the next day, you shall be prepared to climb higher.
Climb up to the summit camp. The distance between the two camps is not long but the road and the rocky areas make it a little difficult. However, On this day you can go for an evening walk and have a good look at the place. However, we will suggest that you sleep early on this day so that you will be fresh the next day as we will be waking up early.
Day 9 will be a simple summit attempt and we will move back to our camp.
On Day 10 we will be moving from camp 1 to the base camp. We will be moving from where we came from.
The journey from Batal back to Manali is approximately 5-6 hours of drive. We will reach Manali most probably by evening. Thus with the end of day 11, our journey of the CB Expedition will also come to an end.
Many times there are extreme bad weather conditions or unforeseen events which is why we keep a reserve day so that we can have one more attempt. Travelers who would like to travel further or experience some adventure activities with Broza Adventures are always welcome.
