"You will unquestionably miss on something on the off chance that you dont go for atleast one himalayan trip ever in your life to the Hampta pass trek one of the best treks I’ve ever been to".

Let me legitimize my announcement
Here goes the experience!!

May was the point at which I chose to go for a himalayan journey.

Our place of contact was Adventure Nation who thusly co-ordinated with Hikesdaddy.in

So here goes our excursion plan beginning from Mumbai to coming to Chandigarh.

Excursion from Mumbai to Chandigarh

We began from Mumbai took the flavor stream trip of 3.30 pm and landed Chandigarh at 5.30 pm costing approx 5500 for every Pax. Our pre appointments got us this modest charge. When we came out from Chandigarh ...
... air terminal it was 6.00 pm. We chose to wander a touch of Chandigarh and investigate the new city. We went to Sukhna lake which is intended to be the magnificence of Chandigarh, which truly is!!

At last after all the Chandigarh fun, we arrived at the transport stand Sec-43 HP Petrol siphon from where we needed to board our transport to Manali. We took the Himalayan Volvo Semi Seater transport costing Rs. 1000 for every Pax. The transport timings were 11.00 pm to 7.00 am from Chandigarh to Manali

Day 1 – Manali to Jobra

We figured out how to reach Manali by 9.30 am and chosen to remain at "Day and night" inn (that cost us INR 800 for 2 rooms) to spruce up before we begin journeying.

At long last we met our journey head Mr. Sanjeev Thakur and Mr. Mahendar (who were our trip control) and joined us in the vehicle to show up at our journey beginning stage – Jobra.

The trip guides educated us the accompanying things :

1. No system for 4 days. When you reach back to manali on the fifth day, you will discover organize on the telephone. So advise your relatives about it.

2. Convey some food or fiery so you dont feel down while strolling

3. Attempt to spur your companions and help them while strolling in light of the fact that it isn't that simple for apprentices

4. We give stuffed lunch while traveling.

Also, with all the fun, masti chatting on the path there we go Jobra.

We gave our sacks to the donkeys and since it was coming down we needed to wear our rain coats/winsheaters

The incline to be climbed is simple and not steep. The site is invigorating as you go up journeying. You will likewise observe not many sheep and cows munching in the field.

We arrived at our tents around 6.00-6.30 pm at night and everybody of us was attempting to get a vibe of what a tent life is. Our base camps were situated close to the cascade at Chika. Encircled by Rani stream water, excellent mountain, chilling cold atmosphere

We documented our water bottles from the crisp streaming waterway water. The allotment was for 5 young ladies ed in the greater tent and 2 young ladies in the littler tent.


Day 2 Chika to Balu ka Ghera

Getting up at 6 am, gathered our sacks, tent and began our trip towards the following objective balu ka ghera. The initial segment came waterway crossing however thank god it was a little scaffold stream crossing dissimilar to the waterway crossing you run over in the later part.We strolled 8 kms on day 2. There came waterway crossing at around 1. Bind your shoes to your pack or point and toss your shoes on the other of the stream. This was simply to guarantee shoes dont get wet in the waterway. Make a chain hold each other hands and walk. We were approached to make a train and cross to guarantee you dont become overzealous by the power of the waterway. Here are some photographs

of waterway crossing. The water is excessively cold and will definately prick your feet

After waterway crossing untill the dead feet we were approached to eat. Pressed lunch – bread spread and bread jam. A brief break wear your shoes and all set again to walk. at this point you reach Jwara. Jwara is delightful spot with immense snow clad rocks on one side and valley drops down to the waterway on the other. You will discover snows dissolving into the stream.

The way forward is secured with multi shaded blossoms. Balu ka ghera is situated at 11,900 ft.

At last after the day's endeavors we were on time arrived at our tent by around 2 as trained by the trip control. Fabricated our tents, rested and at that point soup was prepared, Chilling climate hot soup and papad. A pleasure!!

Do convey appropriate virus garments – socks, gloves, coat, Very less probablity of garments evaporating in the mountains. Later after the tea and espresso meeting we remained with our trip to hear a few anecdotes about himaalayas. Its fascinating to hear them from the ponies mouth (the genuine center himalayan individuals). Furthermore, trust me you cannot miss out on those accounts.


Day 3 Balu-Ka-Gera to Shea Goru crossing Hampta Pass

Objective – Hampta Pass

We needed to walk 14 kms on day 3. This day incorporates rock moving at a height of 14000 ft high and down again to 12000 ft where your campground will be situated at Sia Goru. Rock climbing right for the following hardly any hours and it was a bright day which was really an excellent part.


In transit we confronted a couple of challenges because of the mud and all the dangerous mountains.We took camohor tablets alongside us for use if there should arise an occurrence of crisis. Post rock moving there came one all the more enormous waterway crossing. Waterway crossing once a day resembles an achivement in itself. It was not restricted to shake climbing and stream crossing.

Here we go Snow and Glaciers!!!! You cannot keep your feet straight on the glaicer. No big surprise you wear the Quecha shoes or any journeying shoes. You will undoubtedly slip and fall. Walk gradually taking a gander at each progression. Not the snow streets, they were steep icy mass mountains. First equalization your feet in the icy mass and walk upwards. Strolling on the ice sheet expended more often than not on day 3. Simply follow your journey control.


Post lunch for the following 2-3 hours there was just ice sheet and snow mountains.

Dont gaze toward the amount you need to climb dont peer down at the amount you have strolled. Simply peer down and continue strolling.


Also, There you go!! You can see Hampta Pass coming ahead. Energy and inspiration abruptly risses that you at long last vanquished it. Foggy atmosphere, frigid mountains, Mountains all around walk and walk, Life coudnt have improved than this.

There you go HAMPTA PASS. Paradise on earth!!. You will out of nowhere feel enthusiastic and appreciate the best inclination being large and in charge.

This inclination is significant and all the 3 days endeavors are definately justified, despite all the trouble. Lights, Camera, Action and out of nowhere you are largely prepared to click photos.

At that point came the trickest part of the jounrney – plunge from the mountains.

The most ideal approach to get down is utilizing sticks as a parity or by sliding down. The plummet is similarly tiring. In any case, some portion of the drop will include strolling on a level land.

Yet, when you descend at 12000 ft you will see your base camp at Siagoru which is additionally situated at the waterway side, snow topped mountains and green base camp

Day 4 SiaGoru to Chatru

This day is again a plummet strolling yet less tiring and less troublesome than day 3 It included apporx 4-5 hours of downhill journey. Anyway the declining strolling included strolling on the edges of mountains. Likewise the courses are tricky which can prompt slippages. The ice sheet drop is likewise engaged with this course. The ice sheet on this course is more dangerous as it a declining and cautious strides to be taken while setting the following foot. Chandra stream is excessively enormous and youll see weighty waves streaming aside while you walk.


When you arrive at the objective Chatru we ended for a break and our jeeps were holding on to take us to the most anticipated objective – Chandrataal Lake.

On the wheels, I was actually sitting straight clicking photos of the excellence around and manoevuring between every inescapable stone/rocks and brittle edges. It's practically similar to an off driving encounter that too in high Himalayas.

While you come to the chandrataal lake, you go over marvalous grand magnificence, eye getting excellent mountains, clear skies.

The completely clear lake water and you can really observe the impression of the siding mountains in the lake is the excellence of this lake


This is the most wonderful aspect of the whole trip. Would you be able to ever get exhausted of this magnificence?

We returned to our base camp at Chatru and finished the day

Day 5 Chatru to Manali

We said farewells to all the new and decent individuals we met and afterward hit the street back to Manali. We stopped at Rohtang pass on our way back and as we had reached out excursion to remain back in manali. we remained at an inn and the others left for their way back to home.

It was a critical life exciting experience ever!!

I might want to express gratitude toward Trek the Himalayas bunch for organizing such a stunning trip. Beginning from orchestrating our campgrounds, to lunch and supper to dropping us securely to Manali.
