Overview

Hampta pass trek connects two beautiful valleys named; Kullu and Lahaul, where one gets to see various ever-changing Landscapes. There are only a few treks which can offer almost everything that one wishes to see on a Himalayan trek. Incredible views of glacial valleys, thick pine forest, open meadows, adrenaline pumping waterways, and an adventurous crossing of a high altitude pass. Like an icing on the cake, we have added an exciting day-long trip for camping at Chandratal; a high altitude alpine lake & a camper’s paradise. The return road journey is over the Rohtang pass. It is a moderate grade trek and recommended for experienced as well as beginners.
