Trip costThe trek that takes you across from Kangra Valley to Chamba Valley over the Jalsu Pass(3450m) - a high ridge in the Dhauladhar range of Himachal Pradesh. It's one of the more gentle crossings in the Dhauladhar range which has mountains going upto high 5000m but still offers a whole lot in a short period of time. The trail is amix of a lot of things, it has jungles, wide-open meadows, and riverside camping. The view from the top of the Jalsu pass of the Bara Bhangal range is simply breathtaking with grand views of peaks in the Pir Panjal range, with the sacred Mani Manesh Kailash peak dominating the skyling towards the north. On the trail, one is likely to meet many shepherds with their livestock travelling through the upper slopes of the valleys on either side of the pass. The gentle ascent of the trail makes it a perfect trek for anyone who wants to experience the world of Himalayan outdoors in quick time.
