Baralacha La

Baralacha La Pass at 4,890 m is a spectacular high-altitude mountain pass on the Manali-Leh Highway connecting Lahaul to the Zanskar range — a dramatic, glacier-fringed crossing over a water divide where the Bhaga, Yunam, and Chandra rivers originate. One of the most remote and scenically dramatic passes on the Manali-Leh road trip circuit, it is open June to October. The tarn-dotted alpine landscape at the summit is breathtakingly beautiful and one of Himachal Pradesh's finest high-altitude vistas.
