Hampta Pass Trek

Description

Hampta Pass Trek is one of the most dramatic crossover treks in India. The journey begins in the lush green valleys of Kullu with pine forests, waterfalls, and wildflower meadows. As you ascend toward Hampta Pass, the scenery changes dramatically into the rugged, barren mountains of Lahaul.

This unique contrast makes the trek visually exciting and highly rewarding. The highlight of the trek is standing at 14,100 ft at Hampta Pass and witnessing two completely different Himalayan landscapes on either side.

An optional visit to Chandratal Lake adds even more magic to this adventure.
