Tentu Pass and Manali Pass
Tentu Pass (4996 meters) a mixture of snow, ice and rock with the gradient up to 75° to 80°, which makes the climb difficult and exhaustive. It can be seen from Beas Kund and Bakarthach and serves as a base camp for climb up to Hanuman Tibba (6001 meters) and other surrounding peaks. Climb to Tentu Pass is an achievement in itself as it's one of the highest passes of the region and entire Kullu Valley and Pir Panjal mountain ranges are visible here. The trekker can also view beautiful peaks like Hanuman Tibba, Shitidhar, Friendship Peak and Ladakhi Peak from close. It's not an easy climb and climber needs to be experienced and carry all professional gear like Ice Axe, snow shoes, Crampons and ropes etc to climb this summit. We will make arrangements to make your climb successful.
