The road over the pass is extreme. It’s narrow and unmetalled and connects the Chamba valley with the Pangi valleys of Himachal Pradesh. It’s a treacherous and slippery road where even the most experienced drivers do not dare to drive faster than 10 kmph at any point of time. The roads here are in bad condition, no mettaled or tarred road, Avalanches and heavy snowfalls can sometimes block some sections of the road and can be extremely dangerous due to frequent patches of ice. The pass is the shortest road link between Chamba town and the Pangi Valley. The Pangi valley remains cut off from the rest of country for about seven months in a year. some 450 km from the state capital,

Basic accommodation can be found at Killar for the night stay.

Words can’t describe the road and pictures don’t do it justice. The pass offers a spectacular view of the show clad peaks, high mountains, and untouched and unspoiled surroundings. The traffic on the road is virtually nonexistent, just some buses, a handful of jeeps and trucks. Likewise the valley is relatively sparsely populated not surprising due to the steep valley, with perhaps one village every 30km.
