Rohtang Pass, Himachal Pradesh
Been there recently?
About 51 kilometres from Manali, Rohtang Pass is a high mountain pass on the Pir Panjal Range of the Himalayas. Known for its scenic beauty, it offers beautiful sights of glaciers, peaks, the Lahaul Valley, and the Chandra River. Also visible are the twin peaks of Geypan. One of the most scenic places in the state of Himachal Pradesh, the pass makes for picturesque drives, lying on the watershed between the basins of the Chenab and Beas rivers. People who lived on either side of the Pir Panjal range are said to have used it in the past as a trade route. During summer, visitors can be seen enjoying sledge rides on the surrounding snow-covered slopes. But accessing this pass requires a special permit, which is valid for only one day, and can be obtained from the Tourism Development Council.
