Sarpass Trek - Himalayan Landscapes


These are the pictures I have taken in my trip to Himachal Pradesh for a sarpass trek with YHAI.
The base camp was located at 6800ft near Kullu in a village called as Kasol.
The sarpass was at 13,800 ft to be done in 7 days trek. The trek was completed successfully. Below images would try to showcase the beauty that might himalaya beholds !
