About Indrahar Pass Trek

4 Days
14,245 FT
Challenging

Indrahar Pass at 14,245 ft is the gateway across the mighty Dhauladhar range — one of the most dramatic mountain walls in the Indian Himalayas. This 4-day moderate-difficult trek from McLeodganj starts at the iconic Triund ridge and climbs through snowfields and steep moraines to a pass that offers views deep into the Chamba Valley and the Pir Panjal range beyond. The logical next step after Triund for trekkers ready to graduate to a more serious Himalayan challenge near Dharamshala.
