The amazing trek of Borasu offers a variety of landscapes and is one of the well-known passes in the higher elevation regions of Baspa and Tons.
The stunning Borasu Pass trip takes hikers past quaint towns, pristine woods, open meadows, and meandering rivers, allowing them to take in the beauty of nature at every turn.
The Borasu Pass trekking route winds through the historic, beautiful valleys of Maninda lakeside and Har khi Dun, providing hikers with stunning vistas of the alpine flora and luscious grasslands. While they hike this section of the trek, the trekkers are also drawn by the allure of the Govind National Park’s virgin forests.
During the Borasu Pass climb, idyllic lakeside night camping is possible at the glacier waterbodies of Borasu and Maninda. You may take in the unmatched clarity of Kinnaur and Sankri when you reach the trail’s highest point.
The lovely Chitkul Village is reached on the last day of the Borasu Pass trip, and en route you may take in the captivating views of milky streams, snow-capped hills, verdant meadows, and blue skies.
