Sheshnag - the Land of the King Serpent
Sheshnag is situated at the altitude of 3,570 m from the sea level. Through spectacular, primeval countryside, and the prime centre of attraction is Sheshnag, a mountain which inherits its name from its seven peaks, resembling the heads of a mythical snake. The trip to Sheshnag follows steep inclines up the right bank of a descending stream and wild surroundings untouched by civilization. The second night's camp at Sheshnag (Wawjan) overlooks the deep blue waters of Sheshnag lake and glaciers beyond it. The lake is striking with an exquisite setting of colours. There are interesting legends of love and revenge associated with the Sheshnag, and at the camp these are recounted by campfires, to the tranquility of a pine-scented, Himalayan night.
