About this trip
Hampta Pass Trek Package is one of the most dramatic high-altitude trekking experiences in Kullu district, Himachal Pradesh, offering an incredible transition from the lush green landscapes of the Kullu Valley to the rugged, barren mountains of Lahaul. Starting near Manali, the trek crosses the spectacular Hampta Pass and descends towards the famous Chandratal Lake, making it a favourite Himalayan adventure for travellers seeking diverse landscapes in a single trek.
What makes the Hampta Pass Trek special is the dramatic change in scenery along the route. Trekkers move through green forests, river valleys, alpine meadows, rocky mountain terrain, high-altitude passes, and the cold desert landscape of Lahaul. The contrast between the two sides of the pass makes this one of the most visually rewarding treks in Himachal Pradesh.
