Road to Kaza | Kaza to Manali | Kunzum La | Gramphu | Rohtang La | Himachal | Spiti Road Trip 2018
- 6 years ago
Presenting you with my last part of Kinnaur Spiti Road Trip. Manali to Kaza via Kunzum La Pass.
Kaza to Manali was one of the favorite stretch from my Spiti Road Trip. We started early morning from Kaza and it took us almost 7- 8 hours to reach Manali. The total distance from Kaza to Manali is around 200 Km, but the roads are not good. After crossing Kyato, the roads started to deteriorate and only after crossing Gramphu we found smooth road. But the journey is worth. On the way we crossed Chicham bridge, world's highest bridge from sea level at 4,037 m (or 13,244 ft). There after we crossed few small villages like Kyato, Losar. After crossing Losar police check post we started our climb to the mighty Kunzum La Pass. Kunzum La or Kunzum Pass is at an altitude of 4,590 m (or 15,059 ft). The feeling of being there is so awesome, extreme cold, windy. There's also a temple Kunzum Devi Temple. The roads are very narrow. You will see some of my deadly experience in the video. All I could say is drive cautiously guys.
After Kunzum La Pass, we reached Batal. Nothing much to talk about Batal, just few dabha, but thank god they are there. From Batal, Chandertal Lake is around 15 Km, but that's a different road and unfortunately was closed.
After Batal, the drive was very adventurous till Gramphu. This stretch of road is only meant for trucks and SUV. Soon we crossed Gramphu and reached Rohtang Pass. Rohtang La or Rohtang Pass is at an altitude of 3,978 m (of 13, 051 ft). I would say Rohtang is a tough climb, one of the most dangerous passes. Especially, when you are descending towards Manali, the curves are narrow and sharp. Soon we reached Manali and our Spiti road trip was over. But much more to come after this.
I would like to thank my friend Gaurav Sharma for all the help and company throughout the journey
