Description

A quintessential Himalayan pass ridge trek, modeled on Broza Adventures. From the heritage hamlet of Rumsu near Naggar, ascend through centuries-old deodar and silver birch groves to Naya Tapru and Chaklani. Reach the summit ridge of Chanderkhani Pass at 12,010 ft (3,660 m) for an awe-inspiring 360-degree amphitheatre of Deo Tibba, Indrasan, the Bara Bhangal Range, and the Parvati divide.

THE GLACIATED EXPEDITION ROUTE

Ascend through the raw Keylong and Darcha outpost, setting high camps along the formidable Milang Glacier moraine before confronting the summit ridge pyramid.

Capt. Siddharth R.

"The acclimatization schedule on Mulkila was calculated with extreme surgical precision. Our IMF certified lead captain was constantly checking SpO2 levels and snow anchors. Summit day felt safe despite the 55° ice wall. Best expedition outfit in the Himalayas."

Response from cravel.in Captain

Thank you Siddharth! Safety protocols and gradual altitude gain on the Milang Glacier are our absolute top priority.

Ananya Deshmukh

"Standing on the M4 pinnacle at 6,517m with the Spiti, Zanskar, and Pir Panjal massifs stretching into infinity was a spiritual experience. The Swiss shoreline tents and high-calorie nutrition were incredible for recovery."

Response from cravel.in Captain

Congratulations on summiting M4 Ananya! Our mountain chefs loved keeping the team fueled with warm nutritious meals.
