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.
A Photographs taken from Rohtang Pass. Shows and idea about
the route from Manali - Marhi - Rohtang. Marhi is
around 35 kms from Manali. Rohtang pass is
about 15 kms from Marhi.
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.
