Buran Ghati - Barua Pass Trek
Trip Overview
Barua Pass served similarly connecting the village of Barua with that of Pabbar valley. This trek takes you through tall standing forests, the lush green alpine meadows of Dayara and Litham thatch, a serene looking Chandranahan lake, before bringing you to the high altitude terrain of a Himalayan Pass. The Pabbar river gushes down below playing a constant music until your objective of crossing the pass comes nearer and your focus changes. The thrill of crossing any Himalayan pass is incomparable, although not difficult as compared to other passes in the Himalayas. Descending down the pass offers a good challenge in form of its steepness and hard snowy terrain. Post that, this trek again enters the greens of Monirang and then to the village of Barua.
