Ride to Chanshal Pass and Tops of Chakrata : Pass-N-TheHills

[instantsharma]

Leave behind the chaos of the city and ride into a world where the air gets thinner, the views get wider, and the roads demand your focus — and reward it with every turn.

🏔️ Chanshal Pass (12,300 ft) – The Untamed Gateway of Himachal

Perched high in the Pabbar Valley of Himachal Pradesh, Chanshal Pass isn’t just a road — it’s an experience. With loose gravel, no guardrails, and panoramas that steal your breath (if the altitude hasn’t already), the ride to Chanshal River Camp and onward to the Pass is the perfect test of your bike and your grit.

We will be staying in tents by the gurgling streams and sipping our sips while the clouds roll through the ridges, Chanshal sets the tone for what follows — a journey carved for those who crave the raw.

🌲 Chakrata – The Quiet Rebel of Uttarakhand

After taming the Chanshal, head south to Chakrata — a lesser-known gem in the Garhwal hills. Tucked between thick deodar forests and ancient limestone caves, it offers riders a very different high.
• Moila Top: A ridge trek with 360° Himalayan views and a cave temple whispering stories of sages.
• Chilmiri Neck: Sunset point. Ridge riding. Winds in your face.

🛣️ The Ride

Delhi → Rohru → Chanshal Pass → Chakrata → Delhi
Approx 1,000 km loop of changing altitudes, shifting terrains, and unforgettable moments. Best done in 5 days if you’re balanced between riding and living. A day by day itinerary will be shared soon.

⚙️ Pass-N-TheHills isn’t just a ride (27th Aug to 31st Aug 2025).

It’s for those who find poetry in petrol, peace in pine forests, and purpose in passes.
It’s the silence between gears. The echo of your engine off Himalayan walls.
It’s a reminder: the higher you go, the smaller your worries look.

as they say thumping 13. good going fellas. I believe the overwhelming response to this needs to be limited as all accommodations are basic and limited due to their exclusiveness. We lock the final count at 15 members. So no more than 15 people can be on this ride.

Great going.......Dilli Se Reeeee........
