Hampta Pass Trek is one of Himachal Pradesh’s most spectacular crossover treks, taking you from the lush green valleys of Manali to the vast, barren landscapes of Lahaul. This journey showcases the incredible diversity of the Himalayas — from dense forests and alpine meadows to high-altitude passes and dramatic mountain deserts.

The trek begins from the beautiful Jobra region near Manali and takes you through the scenic Hampta Valley, where you walk alongside rivers, waterfalls, and colourful Himalayan landscapes. As you gain altitude, the trail leads to the magnificent Hampta Pass (14,100 ft approx.), offering breathtaking views of snow-covered peaks and the contrasting landscapes of Lahaul Valley.

Crossing the pass feels like entering another world — where green mountains transform into rugged desert landscapes. The journey concludes near Chandratal Lake (subject to weather and road conditions), one of the most beautiful high-altitude lakes in Himachal Pradesh.

With changing landscapes, challenging trails, and unforgettable mountain views, Hampta Pass is the perfect adventure for those looking to experience the raw beauty of the Himalayas.
