The Hampta Pass is an amazing trek for all levels of experience. It offers a thrilling High Himalayan Pass crossing with beautiful views from the top, encompassing the lush green valleys of Kullu and Manali, and the semi-arid area of the Lahaul valley. This path may not be an easy one, but there are still fewer challenges than some other treks in India. Whilst being moderately challenging in parts and weather-changeable, it is also one of the shortest and most enjoyable treks to be had in the country.
The gem Hampta pass journey offers unmatched variety and excitement along the trail to take care of any exhaustion, starting in the gorgeous Manali Valley, just a short ride from the city of Manali. As we hike through the lush green landscape of the first two days, we pass numerous meadows inhabited by local shepherds and one camp at an amazing location. It is a very relaxing stage.
We traverse the wild terrain, from rivers and streams to waterfalls. Along the way, you will find a mix of pine, deodar, spruce, horse chestnut, oak, and birch trees, while also encountering sheep, shepherd dogs, and birds such as white-capped redstart and whistling thrush. Depending on when you visit you may see various Alpine flowers too. The toughest leg of this journey takes us to Hampta Pass; a route that might require boulder riding and climbing snow-covered slopes under certain conditions. When you get there, be sure to take in the breathtaking view of nearby peaks like Deo tibba and Indrasana – a marvellous experience that will forever remain in your memory.
Best Time to Visit: If you're planning to go on the Hampta Pass trek, the best time to visit is from June to September. During these months, the weather is pleasant and perfect for trekking. However, if you plan to go after September, it's not recommended to trek alone due to the extreme cold. And if you're planning to go after October, be prepared for heavy snow in the area. For a hassle-free trekking experience, consider booking with Trekkaro, a reliable and experienced trekking company.
In the morning, we go to the dam site in Jobra and walk through a very pleasant landscape from here. The walk will initially take us through a mixed forest consisting of spruce, pines, deodar, chestnut and maple trees. We cross a beautiful meadow, where a cushy shepherd live. If shepherd bridge is not built somewhere along the river, then we have to cross the river at a convenient place. We cross the river and climb a beautiful meadow called Chika. Today's trek is gentle and will take about 2 hours. After resting for some time it would be advisable to walk a short distance near a nearby waterfall, which also hosts several white capped redstarts.
Note:- Trekkers are required to take only those VOLVO buses which reach Manali by 09:00 AM on the first day. Our reporting time is 10:00 AM at Manali Bus Stand but if you are unable to arrive at the meeting / briefing time, we will either transfer your seat to any of our next batches or we will cancel your trek, so please Double check your bus time your bus transporter. Overnight in tents.
Today is an interesting day. We cross the stream immediately after the campsite and begin to gain elevation and continue towards a gorge section, heading towards the river on the right. We will pass through the Boulder section, crossing the wildflower-filled plains, a waterfall and a side river, which may require careful handling to reach Balu Ka Ghera campsite. This hike will take about 6 hours with some breaks in between. This campsite with a network of river channels and large mountains all around it. We relax at the campsite and charge to climb the Hampta Pass the next day. Overnight stay in tents.
Today the weather and trail conditions will decide what time we leave, but it will be sure to get up early in the morning. Depending on the weather and weather conditions, walking is likely to be partially / completely on snow. From the camp we start with a steep climb up the creepy slopes to reach a ridge and from here we proceed to another ridge which leads to the pass. This climb will take about 4-5 hours and one will be rewarded with views of the whole world. The peaks of Indrasana and Deo Tibba completely dominate the landscape and the ranges towards Lahaul seem quite majestic. The descent is a little trickier than climbing. It can also vary slightly depending on the snow conditions. Overnight stay in camps.
It is a gentle downhill walk beginning with Shea Goru. You still walk along the river in the valley between the mountain ranges. After an hour you can see the Chhatru road just a short distance away. The mountains in front of it are barren with specs of greenery - a typical Lahaul look. As you get closer to the road, the descent becomes a bit tricky. You will need to cross the edges of the cliffs and sometimes it can be easy to leave the rocky section and descend into the river / glacier bed below to get back up. You are still at a height, but you have the road right and the Chandra river separates you from the road. Two to three huge glacial flows from the mountains merge downward into the Chandra River. You will need to cross these glaciers to reach campsite that contains water.
From Chhatru, drive in vehicles to the majestic Chandratal. And after soaking in the peaceful vibes of the Chandrataal Lake, return back to Chhatru campsite. Please note that due to landslides or snowfall, the route to Chandratal is sometimes blocked. If the road is found closed then Chandratal drive will not be done. Overnight stays in tents.

It isn't always that you cannot survive high-altitude treks, but to be safe, we are always prepared with oxygen cylinders in case you are not accustomed to the environment. On the trek, one of our team members carries an oxygen cylinder and all the essential medicines.
To prevent high altitude conditions - Exercise, cycle, and swim more to prevent high altitude conditions. The more you practice, the easier it will be.
3. Stretchers on every campsite:- Even though we are physically and mentally prepared for the environment, accidents or uncertain situations still happen.
