https://www.himalayanhikers.in/hampta-pass-trek/

The Hampta Pass Trek is one of the most dramatic and rewarding treks in the Indian Himalayas, offering a rare crossover from the lush greenery of Kullu Valley to the stark, cold desert of Spiti Valley. With changing landscapes at every turn, this trail is perfect for trekkers seeking variety, adventure, and surreal beauty in one journey. The Hampta Pass Trek 2025, organized by Himalayan Hikers, is a 5-day trek that begins from Jobra near Manali and reaches an altitude of 14,000 ft, offering panoramic views of snow-clad peaks and glacial valleys.

Highlights include the flower-carpeted meadows of Chika, the river-side campsite of Balu Ka Ghera, the adrenaline rush of crossing Hampta Pass, and the optional visit to the turquoise-blue Chandratal Lake in Spiti. Rated moderate in difficulty, it is an ideal first high-altitude trek for fit beginners and a favorite among photographers and thrill-seekers.

The best time for Hampta Pass Trek is from June to September, when the weather is clear, and the landscapes are at their vibrant best.
