Lamkhaga Pass (5282 m) (Chitkul to Harsil), May 2018
This Himalayan high pass divides Kinnaur, Himachal Pradesh from Uttarakhand in India. We followed the following route:
- Chitkul to Rani Kanda
- Rani Kanda to Dumti
- Dumti to Gundar
- Gundar to Lamkhaga advance base camp (Kinnaur side) (One may break this climb till base camp 1 and next day to advance base camp…….we skipped)
- Advance base camp to Upper Kyarkoti after crossing Lamkhaga pass (Again, you may camp at Lamkhaga pass base camp of Gangotri side, followed by trek till Kyarkoti. We decided to continue beyond base camp and camp at upper Kyarkoti)
- Upper Kyarkoti to Kyarkoti
- Kyarkoti to Gangnani
- Gangnani to Harsil
Chitkul to Harsil (Gangotri) Trek
This is a remote pass and very few groups have finished this. Thus, it could be a good option for all those who loves to visit the under-explored! Raacho Trekkers team did the first recce of the route from Kinnaur side in 2014.
