About Sar Pass Trek

5 Days
Moderate

Sar Pass at 13,800 ft is one of Himachal Pradesh's most iconic trekking passes, made legendary by decades of YHAI expeditions from Kasol. This 5-day moderate trek passes through thick pine forests, the enchanting Nagaru meadow, and a snow-covered pass with views of the Parvati Valley and Beas River. The post-pass snow slide descent is a highlight that has defined this trek for generations of Indian trekkers. A rite-of-passage trek for the Indian outdoor community.
