Hampta Pass Trek with Himalayan Hikers – Where the Mountains Flip Their Soul
Not every trek tells a story. But Hampta Pass tells two.
On one side, you walk through the lush, pine-scented valleys of Kullu — green meadows, gushing rivers, blooming flowers. On the other, the land suddenly turns into Spiti’s stark desert — barren, bold, and hauntingly beautiful. It’s like walking from Manali to Mars in just 5 days.
This contrast is what makes the Hampta Pass Trek one of the most dramatic and soul-stirring experiences in the Himalayas.
A Trail of Contrasts & Wonders
Every step on this trail feels like nature showing off:
-
Jobra to Chika – Forests that smell of pine and fresh earth
-
Balu Ka Ghera – Meadows where rivers whisper and clouds rest
-
Hampta Pass (14,100 ft) – A surreal crossover from lush green to grey moonscapes
-
Spiti Valley – Rugged silence that echoes something deeper
-
Chandratal Lake (optional) – A glacial lake so still, it feels like time stops

A Night Under a Million Stars
One of the most unforgettable moments on the trek is the night sky at Balu Ka Ghera or Shea Goru. No city lights, no noise. Just you, your tent, and a sky full of stars. You’ll laugh around bonfires, share stories with strangers who feel like friends, and sleep to the sound of rivers.
Best Time to Go
The trek opens from mid-June to mid-October. Early season gives you snow crossings. Late season offers crystal-clear views and Spiti’s raw colors.
Add Chandratal Lake at the end if weather allows — it’s the perfect climax to a journey already filled with magic.
Hampta Pass is Not Just a Trek — It’s a Transformation
When you climb Hampta, you leave behind more than just footprints. You leave behind your rush, your stress, your everyday self.
And in return, you find silence. Courage. And a version of yourself you didn’t know existed.
So if your soul is craving something different — not just a trek, but a story — Hampta Pass is calling.
And we, at Himalayan Hikers, are here to guide you every step of the way.
