Pass is an adventurer's dream destination, situated at an
altitude of about 4000 m. This pass is the gateway to the
Lahual region from Manali. A trek to and beyond the pass makes
a trekker's dream come true. Also, we could find a couple
of stud farmers and their beautiful pets grazing through the
lush green meadows. At the top of the Pass the air seems to
glitter against the snow as we look down over herringboned
ridges into the Lahaul Valley. There is a beautiful Doshohar
Lake left to the pass, where pilgrims go every year on the
auspicious day of 20th Bhadon. This is the only access to

dialect. The view of the Shigri Stream emerging from beneath
