Rohtang Pass literally in Tibetan language translates into “Pile of dead bodies” or “The Heap of Skeletons” as people die owing to the bad weather, in their attempt to cross the pass. At an altitude of 3,978 m or 13,051 ft, it is a high mountain pass on the eastern Pir Panjal Range of the Himalayas.rohtang3

51 km from Manali, the Rohtang Pass connects the Kullu Valley with the Lahaul and Spiti Valleys of Himachal Pradesh,India.The beautiful glaciers, peaks and Chandra river flowing down the Lahaul valley with the twin peaks of the Geypan, the panoramic view offered is a visual delight.

Backpackers and Trekkers mark their calendars during the months of June to October to scale the mountain peaks.The ascent up the terrain snakes all the way up to the snow point.

The icy air will hit one as being thin and piercing. A mule is often hired to cover the 3-4 kms of distance as the task uphill is tedious and rough. Snow blankets roads, homes and all areas.
