Beas Kund Trek

The Beas Kund region holds significant mythological importance. It is believed that Sage Vyas, the author of the epic Mahabharata, meditated near the Beas River. 'Beas' is derived from 'Vyas,' and 'Kund' means a lake or pool. The lake is considered sacred by locals. Historically, the area was primarily used by shepherds grazing their livestock. Trekking to Beas Kund gained popularity in recent decades as tourism in the Kullu Valley increased. While not directly involved in major historical events, the Beas River has always been a vital water source for the region, influencing settlement patterns and agriculture. The trek itself has become a modern-day pilgrimage for nature lovers and adventure seekers.
