Buran Ghati Pass: A Himalayan Trek That Transforms You Situated deep in the core of Himachal Pradesh is the Buran Ghati Pass, one of those hikes that will appear nearly otherworldly. From latticed forests of pine to mystical villages, glacial lakes to spine-tingling walls of snow, the hike offers a cinematic combination of views and challenges.
I used to believe the mountains were magical. I never imagined that the kind of transformation the ChanderNahan Trek would later bring into my life. Deep down into the Pabbar Valley, deep into Himachal Pradesh, this off-beat trek took me through spell-bound forests, large alpine pastures, and to the pious ChanderNahan Lake—a glacial wonder on the brink of the world.
Some treks take you to your breaking point. Some alter your mind. And some, like the Rupin Pass Trek, do both—add a dash of magic and mayhem to it. I had come across many blogs calling this one the “most dramatic trek in India,” but no one could have possibly prepared me for what lay ahead. From hanging cliffs to hidden villages and an adrenalin charged pass crossing at near 15,300 feet, Rupin Pass Trek was an epic that I lived one breathtaking step at a time.
