A fresh spell of snow in Himachal Pradesh state attracted a large number of tourists and adventure sports lovers to undertake snow trekking in the serene beauty of the picturesque valley.
Snow trekking is a popular adventure sport among tourists in Shimla.
On Saturday, tourists trekked along the snow-capped mountains while being careful about the slippery terrain.
A tourist, Archana Singh, said that the sight of the mighty Himalayas has thrilled them.
"We are fully enjoying. But when we slip and fall on snow that also has an experience. It becomes slippery. We enjoy a lot but need to take protection too as we are tourists and are not familiar with the tracks," said Singh.
Chilly winds could not dampen the spirit of the revelers as they were seen frolicking in the snow.
Snow adventure sports expert, Jampa Negi, said snow sports was a major attraction for tourists thronging the state in winters.
"Trekking aims that one explore the Himalayas and climb mountain and trekking itself is a a big adventure tourism," said Negi.
