Hampta Pass is a very beautiful sight and a dramatic trek. At 14,000 feet, it is one of the good height mountain passes in the Himalayas. Hampta Pass is the Himachal's Harshil Valley. The landscape bears a striking resemblance to that of the Valley of Flowers—a green, narrow valley sheltered by snow-capped mountains but there's a bonus. Dense pine forests, endless green meadows, gurgling mountain streams, vibrant wildflowers, daunting mountains, beautiful valleys, calm lakes and pools. On one side is the lush green Kullu Valley – with forests, pastures and flowers blooming on the side of your trail. On the other side is the almost arid, austere landscape of Lahaul with barren mountains and almost no vegetation. The entire route of the Hampta Pass trek is littered with everything you can dream of witnessing on the trek. When you reach the other side of Hampta Pass, you will be amazed at the stark contrast of what you have just left behind. The landscape that stretches before you is the Spiti Valley, known for its barren stretches, rugged terrain and forget-me-not blue skies.
At its highest point, the Himalayas seem to have opened up their deepest secrets for tourists to glimpse. But the journey is not over yet. The dynamic experience continues on the descent to Shea Gore. Here you will find the most challenging part of the trek – a steep descent along narrow, rocky paths. The final treat for the eyes and soul on this trek is Chandratal Lake. It is nestled between the lofty peaks of Pirpanjal
at an altitude of 4250 meters.
In short, the Hampta Pass Trek is a must for any nature lover who wants to experience the best of both worlds – from green valleys to arid deserts.

The climb to Hampta Pass, which is moderately steep, is followed by a steep descent to Shea Gore. At the top of the pass, you'll want to take a small break to make it your goal to reach the pass
