Dharamshala
Summit day — Indrahar Pass (4,342m). The climb begins before dawn, ascending steep snow slopes and scrambling over loose rock. The final approach to the pass is a knife-edge ridge with dramatic drops on both sides. Reach the pass for sunrise — the view extends from the Pir Panjal range in the south to the Zanskar ranges in the north, with the Chamba Valley laid out below like a relief map. On the other side of the pass, a completely different landscape opens up — the barren highlands of Chamba contrast sharply with the green Kangra Valley behind. Descend back along the same route to Triund, collecting your camp on the way, and continue down to McLeodganj. Trek complete — one of Himachal's most rewarding 4-day adventures.
