Thanks for the wonderful pics, Just amazing Makes my heart flutter. I will be in Manali for 20-23, staying at SASE, I heard the location of SASE is great enroute to Rohtang Pass. I am reaching on 20th evening. On 21st I am planning Rohtang and Solang valley, on 22nd I am planning to go Nagger and Manikiran. on 23 i am leaving for Dharamsala. Kindly suggest if the above plan is okay. I am not not getting any info for the Manali to Dharamsala.Any info on this will be useful since that is one missing link in my plan. With request for more pics please | |

You have chosen the right place to stay "SASE", infact the location is called mini swiss, these days its lawn are full of roses and very nice and scenic view of the same and am sure you will love the place, and it will be a real good experience for you to stay there. Keeping in mind just 2 days you have with you, your plan is okay, or if you have more days i will suggest you to plan ur visit to keylong for a day. Manali to Dharamsala is connected by deluxe bus which leaves Manali at 6 pm...for further info you can contact the travel agents here. Quote:
Rohtang was opened just a week back, before i started this thread, and after visiting lahaul i opened this thread and posted few fresh pictures of the same for our fellow Team Bhpians Yes sure i do have updated of Baralachla, as am also waiting to drive through to Leh... Baralachla is supposed to be opened by 25th of this month, but since last three days its been raining here and Baralachla Pass is recieving fresh snowfall, so it maybe delayed by week or so.  Baralachla Pass on 8 Oct 2009, A view to view !!! DRIVE SAFE & BE SAFE !!! Last edited by tsk1979 : 19th May 2010 at 11:05. | ||

@TSK I hope you are enjoying your holidays at leh now... you will be glad to know that you made a good decision for opting pathankot-srinagar-leh route, as Baralachla Pass is yet not open, and since last 3 days its having snowfall and still it will take 2-3 days to clear the Pass after the weather is clear. Which means the weather will be cleared only on this wednesday and i hope till you come back from leh the pass will be opened Hope you have great time and looking forward to see leh through your pictures !!! And if in Manali, if you need any help...feel free to contact me. DRIVE SAFE & BE SAFE !!! Last edited by airwolf9211 : 5th June 2010 at 20:57. | |

So please plan your trip accordingly ....! DRIVE SAFE & BE SAFE !!! |

| BHPian  | Re: Finally Rohtang Pass is opened now, Good NEWS for Team BHP'ians Hi Guys, I am planning to go to Leh/Ladakh in end of Sep / start of October, how the weather condition will be in that time(will I find snow  ), and how the road condition from Manali to Leh via Rotang? If I hire a taxi from Manali to Leh how much they may ask for? |

Pray why?!! Rohtang is and has been worse then Brigade road @9pm (in the worst kind of Bangalore traffic)on a Saturday for example. You want to smell petrol fumes and diesel smog for 4 hours cramped in a vehicle? Then you step outside to see dirty snow with oil stains from the smog tinged with dirt. And the dhaabas there serve equally bad food food as the roadside eateries in a city. A better idea is to hit the Hindustan Tibet Road via Simla--> Kinnaur --> Rekong Peo --> Nako -> Sumdo --> Tabo --> Kaaza --> then finally do the mountain pass "Kunzum La" on the way to Chandertaal. If you want to enjoy pristine beauty and experience joy in its purity i.e. I never understood why people chant the name of Rohtang since decades, like its the golden towers in the hollywood flick "Mckennas Gold " or something. --Ragul Last edited by Ragul : 30th May 2011 at 17:11. | |

AS for why people chant the name of Rohtang. Well maybe because, its one of the few places where you can enjoy snowfall in the middle of summer For example, this picture was taken on 10th may 2009. Delhi was around 43 degree C at that time  And this was actually taken much before Rohtang pass  | |
