Trip to Pangi Valley & Sach Pass offers a unique experience much more than the common drive. Pangi valley along with its several sub-valleys like Sural and Hundan is an experience of a lifetime. People generally do not spend time here and rush to reach Kishtwar or Ladakh whereas it is a hidden gem to be explored.

Pangi valley is Lush green and abundantly beautiful. Its hues and environment put you in such close contact with nature which cannot be aptly described in words. Most importantly the places have their virginity intact.

After Sach Pass and road from Killar to Jispa gives you the high that comes with sheer adventure. Cliffhanging roads, freezing temperature, Landslides, Nallahs overflowing the roads, and insane water crossings. Not many people have reached these sub valleys. The whole valley has a unique fragrance.

Sach Pass is a 14,500 ft high altitude pass which connect Pangi and Lahaul Valley with Chamba. It is also one of the toughest passes in Himachal Pradesh and is a real test of determination and skills of the driver and fitness of the vehicle.
