Bhaba Pass Trek
Maximum Altitude: 4890 meters
Duration of Trek: 18 days
Grade: Medium to Hard
Season: Mid July to mid Sept.
This
magnificent trek will take insight into the remote Spiti and Pin
valleys of Himanchal Pradesh. Lush green Kullu valley, the starkly
beautiful Spiti valley and visiting ancient gompas and scattered little
villages are rewarding. After crossing the Bhaba pass the landscape
changes dramatically with the barren lunarscape of Spiti being replaced
by the thick forest of Pine, cedar and deodar. The trek ends at Shimla,
the summer capital of the British Raj.
