Chamba-Dharamshala across Waru Pass
Waru pass lies to the northwest to Singhar Pass. Waru means “The gateway of Wind” and winds with very high velocity blow over this pass. The trek passes throught a number of intermediary ridges, dense forest, rivulets and snow nullahs. This trek is an easy one and poses no difficulty even for trekkers with little experience in trekking. Situated at 3850 meters, locals use this pass frequently to cross from Palampur to Chamba. Enroute Waru Pass we will get to see mesmerizing views of Dhauladhars, Kangra and Chamba valley. We will also cross Satchali, which has got it's name from seven different rivulets mingling together. It's a beautiful glacier. The chirping of the birds intermingled with the murmur of streams flowing down the valley makes the atmosphere very enchanting. There are some improved huts of Gujjars and shepherds and a rock shelter.
