The pass is located in the Lahaul Valley of Himachal Pradesh along the Manali Leh Highway. Also known as Baralcha La, it sits at an elevation of 4,890 meters (16,043 ft).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From Mid October to early May, Baralacha La remains buried deep under snow. During the months of January and February, it receives as much as 50 ft of snow due. It is the first pass to close on Leh Manali road and the last one to open.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">BRO starts their snow clearing operation sometime in March and finally declares Baralacha La open sometime in May, much after the opening of Rohtang Pass.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you were traveling from Manali to Leh, Baralacha La will be the second pass that you will cross, after Rohtang. If you were just visiting Manali or Lahaul Valley, a visit to the top of the pass is highly recommended.

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are several things that make Baralacha La worth a visit. It is one of those passes where you will always find snow, even during the peak summer season. The picture that I posted above of snow walls was clicked in the first week of July.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But it is not only about the snow. The scenery and the views you get between Keylong and Baralacha La will probably be the best that you can get in the entire <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/lahaul-valley-plan-your-tip-what-to-see\/\">Lahaul Valley<\/a><\/strong>. The beautiful lakes of Deepak Tal and Suraj Tal that you see near the pass may be small but are a giant in beauty.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And then there are the stories related to the pass. One is the folklore related to Suraj Tal and the second one is of a ghost that is said to haunt this mountain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Below is a short video of how this beautiful pass looks just after winter.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Manali Leh Highway Status = CLOSED  | Manali Leh Road in May | Baralacha La Pass, Frozen Suraj Tal\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dAe-98jWl6g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Reach_Baralacha_Pass\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">How to Reach Baralacha Pass<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In order to get to Baralacha La, you will first have to reach Manali. From Manali, there are two routes that you can take. The first one is via Rohtang Pass and the second one is via Rohtang Tunnel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Route 1: Manali &#8211; Rohtang Pass &#8211; Keylong &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/jispa-village\/\">Jispa<\/a> &#8211; Darcha &#8211; Baralacha Pass = 190 km<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Route 2: Manali &#8211; Rohtang Tunnel &#8211; Keylong &#8211; Jispa &#8211; Darcha &#8211; Baralacha Pass = 145 km<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For a tourist, the first will definitely be the preferred one because then you also get to see the mighty <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/plan-trip-rohtang-pass\/\">Rohtang Pass<\/a><\/strong> on your way. This way, your journey will be for two days. On Day 1, you reach Keylong via Rohtang and stay there for the night. On Day 2, pay a visit to Baralacha La and then return to Manali via Atal Tunnel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you only had one day in hand, you can plan a day-long trip but will have to start really early from Manali. You will go to Baralacha Pass via Atal Tunnel and return the same way.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"By_Bus\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">By Bus<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Traveling by Bus to the pass can be a little tricky. There is a daily <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-to-leh-bus-2019\/\">HRTC Bus that travels from Manali to Leh<\/a><\/strong> that you can board for this journey but then the problem will be of returning.\u00a0 Hence a better way would be to rent a motorcycle or a scooter from Manali and travel to the pass. If the budget was not a problem, you can also hire a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/taxi-rates-in-manali\/\">private taxi in Manali<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"By_Bhuntar\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">By Bhuntar<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The nearest airport is in Bhuntar, at a distance of 50 kilometers from Manali.

The next nearest airport is in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/places-to-visit-in-chandigarh-things-to-do\/\">Chandigarh<\/a><\/strong> which is a much larger and better-connected airport.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"By_Train\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">By Train<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The nearest train station to Baralacha La Pass is in Chandigarh.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/jispa-1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-28642 size-full\" title=\"bhaga river\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/jispa-1.jpg\" alt=\"bhaga river\" width=\"1000\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/jispa-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/jispa-1-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/jispa-1-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/jispa-1-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/jispa-1-585x387.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/jispa-1-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Time_to_Visit_Baralacha_La\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Best Time to Visit Baralacha La<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The best time to visit Baralacha la Pass in my opinion is the months of May, June, and September. You should avoid visiting in July and August because of the monsoon season. You can plan in May and October as well but there will always be uncertainty about whether the pass was open or not. The weather too in October will get very cold.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hence a safer time will either be in June or September. If you want to see the famed snow walls, June or early July will be better. If you wish to see a lush green Lahaul Valley, September will be a better time to go.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_see_at_Baralacha_La\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What to see at Baralacha La<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Baralacha is really a tourist attraction in itself. It is counted among the places to visit on Manali Leh Highway and in Lahaul Valley. But below is a list of places that you should see at Baralacha La or on your way there.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rohtang_Pass\"><\/span><strong>Rohtang Pass<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rohtang is Manali\u2019s crown jewel and is responsible for more than half of the tourism in the region. At an altitude of 13,054 ft, the top of the pass remains buried under snow for all 12 months and is a beauty in itself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Lush green mountains, beautiful valleys, snow-capped peaks, waterfall, natural springs, challenging roads, water crossings \u2013 you will cover all of it on your way to Rohtang Pass.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/plan-trip-rohtang-pass\/\">How to Plan Your Trip to Rohtang Pass?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bhaga_River\"><\/span><strong>Bhaga River<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jispa is located on the banks of the Bhaga River.

It is said that these lakes are named after Chandra, the beloved daughter of the moon, and Bhaga, the only son of Suryadev, the Sun god.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">They both met each other and fell in love. But when their parents did not approve of their marriage, they both eloped and Baralacha la is where they decided to meet each other.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chandra reached a little ahead of time than Bhaga. When she didn\u2019t find Bhaga at Baralacha La, she wandered off in search of him towards Kunzum Pass and then started to circle back to Baralacha La again.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Just when she reached Tandi, she saw Bhaga coming down from the opposite direction looking for her. They both consequently met and the celestial marriage was performed. The spot where they met is the one where Chandra and Bhaga Rivers merge into each other.

On top of the pass, there are what seems to be the remains of a building that was once used by the Indian Army. It goes by the name of Shaheed Sainik Bhawan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Legend has it that one winter; a man killed three soldiers in this building and ate them. Yes, you read it right. He literally ate their remains. He was later killed by the Army but it is said that his spirit, as well as those of the dead soldiers, still haunt the road across the pass.
