'''Chachi Mug''' is a mountain in [[India]].<br />
<br />
==Description==<br />
Chachi Mug is a {{Convert|5768|m|ft|abbr=off|adj=on}} summit in the [[Himalayas]].<ref name=peakvisor/> The mountain is situated in the state of [[Himachal Pradesh]], {{convert|150.|km|mi}} north of the capital city of [[Shimla]]. Precipitation runoff from this mountain's south slope drains into the Chandra River and the north slope drains into the Bhaga River, and these two rivers converge {{convert|12|km|mi}} west of the peak to form the [[Chenab River]]. [[Topographic relief]] is significant as the summit rises 2,770&nbsp;metres (9,088&nbsp;ft) above the Chandra valley in {{convert|6|km|mi|spell=in}} and 2,620&nbsp;metres (8,596&nbsp;ft) above the Bhaga valley in {{convert|5|km|mi|spell=in}}. The summit elevation is also reported as 5,765 metres,<ref>''Proceedings of the First National Symposium on Seasonal Snow Cover, 28–30 April 1983, New Delhi, Volume 1'', 1985, Manglik Prakashan, p. 349.</ref> and 5,730 metres.<ref>Open Topo Map, Retrieved June 20, 2025.</ref><br />
<br />

July through September is the monsoon season. The months of April, May and June offer the most favorable weather for viewing or climbing this mountain.<ref>[https://travelerbibles.com/best-time-to-visit-himalayas-india/ ''Best Time to Visit Himalayas India – Peak Adventure Season''], Lindsey Tramuta, May 7, 2025, travelerbibles.com, Retrieved June 20, 2025.</ref><br />
