Bhubu pass

The Bhubhu pass trek begins in Kullu valley and crosses over into the Kangra valley. Usually used only by locals in winter. The trail pass through some of the least trodden areas in the Kullu valley. The area is pristine and the trail involves lots of rigde hiking with spectacular views of the Kullu and Kangra valleys. The trail offers big views of Indrasan and Deo tibba from the pass. The area has a high density of Khaleej pheasants and I have also spotted the Western Tragopan twice on this trail on previous trips.
