Lying at an altitude of about 14010ft on the Pir Panjal range, Hampta Pass is a unique and special pass. The pass got its name from the Hampta Village, which lies just below it. It acts as a small corridor between the lush green valleys of Kullu and the deserts of Lahaul Valley. Being on the Hampta Pass is like peeking from a high balcony and getting a view of a different world. The dramatic twist in the landscape is prominent when you are getting a panoramic view. The Hampta Pass offers an extraordinary trekking experience with a complete package of vertical rock walls, waterfalls, glaciers, lakes, and lofty peaks. From the pass, a trekking trail extends to Chandratal, a beautiful high-altitude lake.
