HIMACHAL TREKKING 02

DHARAMSALA TO CHAMBA

OVER INDRADHAR PASS

Altitude: 3,150m.Duration: 7 daysTime Period: May to November

Dharamsala is one of the prominent starting points for trek over the rocky ridges of the Dhauladhar range, which rise steeply from Kangra Valley, surmounted by passes as high as 4,600m. The most frequent route from Dharamsala to the Chamba Valley, over the Indradhar Pass, is arduous in places, but most novice trekkers manage it in around five to seven days.

CHAMBA CIRCUIT

The Baralacha La (4,800m) is a double pass. It marks the divide between the main Himalayas and Lahaul Range, and also between Himalayas and the Baralacha Range, which extends north to the Zanskar. The mountain ranges provide an impressive backdrop, and a night's camping will afford fine views.

DALHOUSIE - BARA BHANGAL

This trek follows the green landscaped trails of Khajjiar, which is a lovely picnic spot site of Himachal Pradesh. From here a 30-km long footpath, passing through thick deodar forests leads to Chamba.

DALHAUSIE-KISHTWAR VIA SACH PASS

Altitude: 4,390m

This trek is also among some of the many treks that pass through the dense Deodar forests of Khajjiar. The trail also presents a chance to explore the various wild horizons and hilly beauty in and around Dalhousie and the ideal time to trek is during summer. The gradual climb to Sach Pass (4,890m), which remains open from June to October is toughie! So be prepared for some steep climbs.

DALHOUSIE - MANALI OVER CHOBIA PASS

Altitude: 4,966m

The descend that one takes from Dalhousie to Chamba valley is full of panoramic natural horizons and while exploring the nature one also gets the opportunity to visit the temples and shrines of this religious town. But caution should be taken in the trail from Chobia to Alyas, which is a difficult one and the hike is steep till one reaches the base of the pass.

DALHOUSIE-MANALI VIA BHARMOUR-UDAIPUR OVER KALICHO PASS

Altitude: 4,800m.

Duration: 18 Days

Time Period: Mid-July to September

Trekking routes lead north from Brahmour (2,130m) across passes covered with snow for most of the ayer. The challenging trek over Kalicho Pass (4,800m), aptly names as 'the abode of Kali' (the Goddess of death), starts with a gradual ascent of 24-km to Badagram (2,325m).
