Trekking in Kangra Valley
All the treks which commence from
Kangra Valley cross the Dhauladhar from Range and terminate in the adjoining
Chamba Valley at one one point or another. Of the five treks mentioned here,
Laka Pass (also called Inderhar or Inderhara) trek and the Minkiani Pass trek
are the most popular owing to their commencement at Dharamsala/McLeodgunj.
|Trek -I|
Dharamshala-Laka
Pass (strenuous) A short,
popular and strenuous trek of 5-6 days, entailing steep ascent/descents of
hundreds of meters every day, even after crossing the pass. Generally open
after the first week of June, the passage becomes easier between 20 August and
30 September, when there is less snow. Cave shelters and rest houses en route;
a small group (4 to 6 persons) need not carry tents. The path is well defined
all the way and a porter or guide is not necessary but could be helpful.
Combinning this crossing with a return over the Minkiani Pass makes an ideal
circular tour of about 10 days.
|Trek -II|
McLeodgunj-Minikiani Pass-Chamba (hard)
A pleasant, moderately strenuous trek of 5-6 days
accross the Dhauladhar; 3 nice lakes en route. Best period: 20 May to 30 June
and 20 August to 10 October.
|Trek -III|
Dharamshala-Talang Pass (strenuous)
Takes seven days and is fairly strenuous and less
frequented. Dadh, a small village on the Dharamsala-Palampur road, is the
stating point. Best period : 1 June to 30 June and 15 August to 30 September.
|Trek -IV|
Baijnath-Parai Jot (hard)
Amoderately strenuous outing of 5-6days. Parai Jot, also called Jalsu or Sureh
Pass, is the first crossing open over the Dhauladhar in a normal season; from
mid May to mid October. Best period : 15 May to 30 June and 20 August to 10
October.
|Trek -V|
Bhim Gasutri Pass
(strenuous). From McLeod
Ganj to chamba, roughly midway between the Minikiani and Laka Passes. Rarely
crossed, even by Gaddis living in this district; however, of notable scenic
interest. On the N side one can descend directly to the main road beside the
Ravi river, or traverse NW into the valey of lakes descending under the Gag and
Minikiani Passes, down to Drakund and Donali.
