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.

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

be prepared for some steep climbs.

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.
