Chanshal Pass

Chanshal Pass

The Chanshal Valley is also known as Chanshal pass and acclaimed for its scenic beauty. It lies in between Dodra Kwar and Rohru(Chirgaon) in the Shimla district of Himachal Pradesh. It is is approximately 180 km from Shimla and accessible by road.

The best time to visit this valley is May to October because rest of the time there is heavy snowfall in the region so it becomes difficult to reach here as most of the roads are blocked. The snowfall in this region could be seen throughout the year. This region is also known for its strong wind flow and one need to be behind rocks to avoid the cold air flow. But this is a unique experience, which is very rare. There is no Shops and hotels in the valley so you can’t expect to have food there but cold water flowing from ice melting peaks could be used for the drinking purpose. The slopes in the region are best for Ski sports and the region is becoming favorite for Skiing and trekking activities.
