Hampta Pass

Hampta Pass lies at an altitude of 4270 m (14039 ft) on the Pir Panjal range in the Himalayas. It is a small corridor between Lahaul’s Chandra Valley and Kullu valley of Himachal Pradesh. It got its name from the Hampta town and shepherds and villagers used this pass to enter in Lahaul Spiti Valley of Himachal. The Hampta Pass stands as a bridge that connects the Kullu valley with Lahaul. The best time to trek to Hampta Pass is from mid-June to mid-October. There are chances to witness some snow on the high passes in the early days of the season and then it melts down completely by August. Rain is expected during the monsoons when the sky shower a little and the flowers are in full bloom.

Hampta Pass Trek

Hampta Pass is one of the most dramatic crossover treks you can do. The trek weaves past the beautiful verdant valleys of Kullu and climbs up to an altitude of 14,035 ft. Hampta pass trek is considered the easiest and convenient of all treks in H.P. It might not be the most adrenalin rush giving or the most sought after trek, but definitely it is a trek that will leave you in awe of this beautiful place. It provides the most contradicting landscapes that offer a genuine shock to the system. The tour starts from the scenic spot of Manali and takes the tourists through distinct and beautiful places such as Jobra, which is the first stop of the excursion. Your next campsite Jwara is a wildflower meadow at the meeting point of a valley! Then there is fjord-like Balu Ka Gera.
