One of the most dramatic crossover treks in India, Pin Bhaba Pass is a coming together of many shades of the land – the Greens from Kinnaur meet the Browns of Spiti at the home of the Whites on the tall, snowy Pass. The trail is sprinkled with a host of rich, vibrant colors as you journey from one world into the other.
While we know beautiful is an adjective used for all corners of the Himalayas and while that’s absolutely legit, Pin Bhaba Pass gives a whole different meaning to the word. This charming trek is a world of light and colour. As the sunlight transforms the color of the land to a thick shade of golden with the light dripping from it like honeydew, the wide assortment of brightly colored wild flowers use the winds to transport their strong scent through the valley. The trail is so thick with colour, you can sniff it in the air – Pin Bhaba Pass trek has such a pleasant yet strong personality. It is so easy to fall in love with that you don’t even have to try! The feeling you get when you experience the breadth of contrasting landscapes makes you wonder if this is what the wild waters see when they tread through these lands. Is this why rivers are so wise?
