Pin Bhaba Pass Trek Tour

Package Overview

The Pin Bhaba Pass trek (aka Tarik La), is one of the few treks where the trekkers witness the lush green mountains as well as the barren lands. The Pin Bhaba pass is at a cross over of the dense forests and the sepherd's trail of Kinnaur in Himachal Pradesh and the stark Pin valley in Spiti, attaining a maximum altitude of 16,125 ft. The dramatic landscape and the moderate difficulty level make it one of the best Himalayan treks. The best time to do Bhaba pass trek is from mid-May to September end. The USP of this trek is that it is one of the rare Himalayan treks which can be done in the monsoon season as well.
