Very few people knew about this place so did I I was totally unaware that such beautiful places also existed here in this particular valley as it was my first time when I visited this place as very few people they do visit and the places still stays hidden among the hustle and bustle of life and comes under the most peaceful places here in this Kulu Valley of Himachal Pradesh. *** # How the Expedition Began. *** *** ![IMG_8978.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmV8JeE5zwk2FrSuux9Apo3bRJP1P4qq2wMrtMfVtu9vah/IMG_8978.png) The journey began something just like this yes you guys have known that how I wonder this beautiful mountains by just first getting along using the GPS map using map apps on my iPhone and then just pointing a particular portion that I want to explore and try finding a nearest route and without thinking much I just go on to the expedition and let's check and let see that we are lead us to. ![IMG_8979.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmfZYSAeEHndBFqN5BikhA3R6XKbHdKVimofc1X9FZWF5G/IMG_8979.png) So I found this place where I saw a bit of a forest and quite dense as there were few of the houses also all around but this particular forest it look different from the other forest so I thought why not just go and explore and approach the mountain and so did I and ended up in this never ending Trail of Banoni Woods. ![IMG_8938.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmeQThb9zoBDK2Ymnp9829Hchd7oEdd4eHYFKUFkX4X8TN/IMG_8938.jpeg) So here I was around 8 AM in the morning when I finally visited the forest all along without any gear just a steak and my mobile phones camera and all alone in this whole Mountain and the never ending trails and his countless number of trees in the forest looked totally very dense and really very peaceful to all along in itself and the whole train it was totally very slippery as it had the grass all around falling everywhere. ![IMG_8941.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmdc3d72y7sErffV3aTuLJMS9S88geeTjvzYerASLPGZcF/IMG_8941.jpeg) #### Been Walking through the Never Ending Jungle for hours and hours long. *** *** ![IMG_8942.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmNNqy55aE65KocY2C3F2V5NUpaMMSKF8uNVHDYfve8rc5/IMG_8942.jpeg) It felt like being so and so closer to the nature at certain portions there were these fallen trees may be due to the heavy snowfall that used to be taking place in this particular jungle and now the snow was melted thus the destruction that it cost could be seen right in front of us as the trees they have fallen rightly from the root. ![IMG_8943.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmV7Ncssr6nyQWWQwb2adUwf18W25u33fv8dY4C6BkEsDt/IMG_8943.jpeg) Guys I had no idea that where I was going and where I was headed up to yes when I reach this place the whole place looked totally very confusing as there were trails all around, these countless number of trees they were just a bit confusing one as I was not sure where I was headed up to need that I was able to figure the direction out as everywhere the whole portion looked totally the same and I was lost in this never ending woods here in the Himalayas. ![IMG_8944.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmXeTXx9zRnNDXQUiRBgcbRTDKEJXBZqZDXKLN5Mrqn9yJ/IMG_8944.jpeg) .The trees they were totally very dense that even the sunlight it was hard for entering in the forest as the sunlight just entered like it was shimmering through the trees and it acted as tiny bits of the light that it was passing by air in this magical place as it felt like totally very amazing and very dreaming all in all it self and at certain portions I said like that I was in a dream all alone walking in this never-ending magical jungle ![IMG_8945.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmd7T8cHnhY3Ce8ZR2xJ1pmcKD1WjkTHAcs45CTkk1pbdJ/IMG_8945.jpeg) *The fallen bark of the tree caused by the snow that causes the whole tree to fall down.* *** ![IMG_8946.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbNom5zuH68XfGt9GJpb3Lb3NSr3BDxWWegh6ScNqFnm8/IMG_8946.jpeg) ### A Titna (Pine Cone) trail formed due to the melting of snow and ice for years and years long every winter. *** ![IMG_8947.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmf5B8UVJyN4eVuQvtFhyrXYh3GzszmLY5gp3JXM23VMoU/IMG_8947.jpeg) *Thus following the natural trail.* ![IMG_8948.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmViRBQL8vvvX1hmkfc3rjvWFiGuhBdaTp9xEdiS9rATWN/IMG_8948.jpeg) Titna also called the Pinecone in local Pahari language, it is also referred as the killer of the snow leopards as when the pinecones the fall of the tree and it falls on the head of a snow leopard and that is the weakest portion of the snow leopard and it is the cause of his death they were a lot all around in the trial and the trial that I wondered was formed up by the melting of the snow as usually this whole place this whole jungle was covered under a thick blanket of snow and now at this particular time of spring time this whole place was looking a bit dry and such trains were formed and I also thought where to go and just I was following the Trail and making my way all the way through these magical trails. ![IMG_8949.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbGCgdpTyB79NdruCZEquG1gjwBSx32L6Ck8TTCAhQAsS/IMG_8949.jpeg) It had been more than three hours that I was just wondering around the magical forest and I was not sure where to go and where I was and from which path did I came as I was totally lost lost in this magical wonderland..! So the thing that I did was just walking straight into the left hand side as I remember that I saw in the GPS map that from the edge we could see the view of the valley and so I also decided to just walk towards the South west side so that I could reach at the edge and I could make my way back and I could even explore a different place and different view and I was just enjoying the pathway and making my way through this beautiful place and capturing the beauty of it. ### The last stretch till the end. ![IMG_8950.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmahLrzw5sJLN3SxJx68o7LnMK8Wz92y9bZLufdTssdY9c/IMG_8950.jpeg) From this particular portion I could see the edge of the mountain though it looks like that it's quite far but it took me more than 15 to 20 minutes just in order to reach at the other portion of the mountain where I could see the edge of the mountain and it was a steep fall and the view from the place it looked totally very amazing. *** > ### The edge. Finally after quite awhile I reached at the edge and it was the edge and a blank edge, quite few trees at the edge and down there was a steep fall and going closer to it was also risky task and the view was just another mountain and there's the valley which could be seen right in front of me and it was the journey of wandering by and getting lost in the never-ending tales of Banoni Woods, it was the story about how an unplanned expedition to an unknown place that presented me with the most peaceful views of the mountains and made me being so and so closer to the nature as it felt like that I was a part of it I was a tree in itself it felt like that I was one among all the trees and the whispers that it was by and the leaves of the trees it said like that they were talking to me I said here for quite awhile and relaxed and I thought that it's a perfect place for meditation as it look like that I was in the deep heart of the Himalayas and it felt like that I am in a totally isolated place away from hustle and bustle of life and it was really a wonderful experience and I wanted to share it with you guys through this post.
