Why I decided to go on Hampta Pass Trek this Monsoon | Himalayan Trek

After completing most of the treks in and around Karnataka it was time to explore the Himalayas. Even though I wanted to do Leh Ladak trip, I always wanted to do Himalayan treks. There are no words to describe the beautiful glaciers, pristine rivers, untouched nature and challenging terrain. I had been following posts on Himalayan treks for a quite some time and my adrenaline rush was getting higher with every article I read.

Since Aug 15th was a national holiday I had to take only 4 days leave. A simple google search suggested me to opt for Hampta Pass Trek, regarded as suitable for fit beginners. Vertical rock walls, waterfalls, hanging glaciers, pinewoods, rhododendron forests, open meadows, tiny lakes and peaks rising above 6000 m are the main characteristics of this trek. Rani Ka Nal
