A classic Parvati Valley snow pass — Kasol's gateway to proper Himalayan trekking
The Adventure
About This Adventure
Sar Pass at 4,206m is one of the most popular first Himalayan pass treks in India — a 5-day journey from Kasol through the Parvati Valley to a dramatic snow pass with sweeping views of the Kullu peaks. The descent on the far side is on snow — a glissade that has become part of the trek's famous identity.
Highlights
What Makes It Special
The Sar Pass snow descent — sliding down a steep snowfield on your back or in a sitting glissade — is one of the most purely joyful moments in Himalayan trekking. The pass itself delivers excellent Kullu mountain panoramas.

This is for you if…

Safety & Prep
Sar Pass is managed by YHAI — most trekkers go with their organised groups. Snow conditions vary year to year — call ahead for May snowpack. High pass crossing requires warm layers even in June.
