The Pin Bhaba pass trek has phenomenal landscape that changes dramatically throughout the trek. We drive eastward from Shimla across the lesser Himalayas and follow river Sutlej all the way to Wangtu, where the Bhaba river confluences with Sutlej. As we start making our way in the northern direction we start our approach to the Great Himalayan range. The allocation of "great" to a Himalayan range is attributed to its massive altitude. This range averages at altitude of 5000-6000 meters. Parang La, Baralacha La and Pin Parvati pass are some other passes that are part of the Great Himalayan range in this region. As we reach the Pin Bhaba pass and crossover to the other side, we enter the Zanskar Range. An enormous change occurs in landscape as we cross from these high passes from south to the north. The green and rugged terrain of the low and high Himalayas give way to the rocky plateaus of the zones of Spiti, Ladakh and the Trans-Himalayas. The landscape change is attributed to this change in altitudes and mountain ranges that happen throughout the trek.
