Rising directly behind Solang village, Patalsu Peak (4,220 m / 13,845 ft) is an exhilarating non-technical summit climb that gains over 5,800 ft of vertical elevation through virgin deodar, oak, and birch woods before breaking out onto sweeping alpine snow ridges commanding panoramic 360° views of Friendship Peak, Hanuman Tibba, Shitidhar, and Rohtang Pass.
