Rohtang
Pass is the highest point, 4,112m, on the Manali-Keylong
road, 51-km from Manali
town. It provides a wide panoramic view of mountains rising
far above clouds, which is a sight truly breath-taking. It
offers only limited skiing opportunities, but trekking
possibilities are immense.
The
pass is open from June to September, although trekkers can
cross the pass from May. Beyond Rohtang pass lies the remote
and, perhaps, the stark and haunting landscape of
predominantly Buddhist areas. The comparative inaccessibility
of the place has helped preserve the pristine culture of the
people of the region. |
