Hampta Pass Trek – A Thrilling Crossover from Kullu to Lahaul with Terranova Adventure

At an altitude of 14,000 feet, the Hampta Pass Trek is one of the most dramatic and scenic crossover treks in the Indian Himalayas. Located in Himachal Pradesh, this trek connects the lush green Kullu Valley with the stark, arid landscapes of Lahaul, offering an experience of unmatched terrain contrast.

The trail starts from Jobra near Manali, winding through dense pine forests, wildflower-filled meadows, rocky terrains, and glacial valleys. As you climb toward the Hampta Pass, the trail becomes thrilling—marked by steep ridges and a sense of mystery, where the pass seems close, yet always just out of reach. Once you cross the pass, the landscape transforms dramatically, revealing the barren grandeur of Lahaul.

This trek is not just about the views—it’s a journey packed with nervous excitement, adrenaline, and a sense of achievement, making it perfect for beginners and seasoned trekkers alike.
