If there is a trek in India that surprises you at every turn, it has to be the Rupin Pass trek. This trek is like an orchestra, building momentum with surprises in scenery every hour. You’ll never see it coming. Allow us to take you through the trek.
To begin with, Rupin Pass is a high altitude mountain pass, climbing to 15,250 feet. The adventure and thrill of ascending to such an altitude in the Indian Himalayas makes it a terrific trek on its own. And then come the surprises.
The surprises begin even before the trek, on your drive from Rohru over the Chainsheel Pass. Unpaved roads wind uphill through forests, changing views by the minute. The forest is so unique that you will want to step out of your vehicle now and then to admire it. At around 11,000 feet, you burst out of the forests into grasslands. These grasslands stretch far and wide. They last until you reach the Chainsheel Pass.
This is just a precursor to the trek.
On the first day of your trek, the hanging village of Jakha, perched on a ridge, takes you by surprise. The next day, the sudden appearance of the tall and dark coniferous forest about an hour outside Jakha is jaw-dropping. The abrupt end of the forest and the sudden appearance of a snow bridge below you (if early in the season) are equally mind-boggling.
We are yet to get to Day 2, where the islands of Saruwas Thatch and a sudden view of the famous Rupin Waterfall catch you by surprise. Even though you have heard the waterfall is tall, its sheer 1,500 ft drop takes you by surprise.
The perfectly “U” shaped glacial valley of Dhanderas Thatch, with hundreds of waterfalls streaming down, make you marvel at how such formations naturally exist. The following day, climbing to the top of the Rupin waterfall over its numerous snow bridges is unexpected. Then, out of the blue, you get to the upper waterfall campsite, with the Rupin river calmly gliding alongside your camp.
After a long climb from the upper waterfall camp, you step into the vast snowfields of Rata Pheri. It is an alpine setting that is least expected.
From the edges of Rata Pheri, the first sight of the Rupin gully leaves you in awe, accompanied by an adrenaline rush. When you realise you have to climb the gully to get to the pass, it is an adventure that trekkers least expect.
The climb to the knife-edged Rupin Pass, the vast slides on the snow after that, and the long grassy descent to the last Ronti Gad campsite are new surprises on the other side.
The Rupin Pass trek is so full of quick scenery changes that it leaves trekkers breathless until the end. Only when you reach the road at Sangla, do the surprises finally end.
Count the sudden scenery changes as you do the Rupin Pass trek. It is a unique combination of high-altitude adventure with stunning changes in scenery -a combination so rare that it makes the Rupin Pass one of the top treks to do in India.

Hi Indiahikes Team,
Great documentary on Rupin Pass.
Waiting for another great documentary on "Why we love Bali Pass" next
An excellent documentary it is! You have been able to instill all the feelings that you yourselves have experienced, in my mind.
I have a question for Mr. Arjun Majumdar: you said it is in your top 3 list. What are the other two?
Such a well made video! One of my favourite treks so far (done with IH ofcourse). A big kudos to the local guides and technical guides on this trek! :)
Thank you! :)
Goosebumps!✨
June 6, 2023 around 9am we climbed the Rupin pass summit. Ours was the first team to do so for the year 2023. Kudos to our trek leader Sanjay Mistry Ji and team. So many memories and lifetime friends I made during this trek.
hey can you tell how much snow was there? my group is planning may-june but we’re worried if we would get to see snowy plains
During my time, right from upper waterfall onwards it was fully covered in snow till the summit.
Nature heal you...so you must protect nature...
Hey can I join your team because I am a huge nature lover and enthusiastic about trecking....
You can check our career page here, indiahikes.com/careers
Thank you @@Indiahikes
I'm a biker by passion and watching this video made me fall in love with hiking, giving me a thought of i should try hiking as well.. such a well made video.. looking forward to join IndiaHikes for this trek someday ❤🎉
Please do! We're looking forward to see you on a trek. :)
@@Indiahikes Indeed!
Truly, Rupin is an emotion ❤. I was waiting for this video since long. I tried Rupin in 2023 but came back from Dhanderas Thatch because of heavy snow. I still remember when you get the glimps of Rupin after Burans Kandi just before Saruwas Thatch, you will get the feeling of accomplishment ❤. No doubt I will go back once again to complete the trek. Thank you @Indiahikes for putting the Rupin Pass Trek on map and keep inspiring us. 😊
What a lovely message to read! Hope to see you back at Rupin some day :)
When did you attempt this trek? In which month?
@@Saurabhtiwary33 I have attempted this trek last week of May 2023.
Finally ❤
The next season to do Rupin Pass is summer. That is in May and June. The dates are already open (and many are already getting full). So plan soon. :) Find the dates here - indiahikes.com/rupin-pass
I have already tried Rupin Pass. Tried because we came back from Dhanderas Thatch due to heavy snow in May 2023.
Will we get cellular network connection in our trekking ?
I have trekked this Rupin pass last oct, 2023 Every moment of this trek fascinated me. Many thanks to @Indiahikes for this experience. I wish I will do it again & again. I wait so long for this video & finally it arrived. 😍😍😍
Hey Sumit.. We are so glad that you feel this way. We will be waiting for you to come trekking with us again. :)
Any group Trek for solo travel?
Oh goodness me the words spoken in praise of Rupin as well as the footages still don't do any justice to the actual beauty that Rupin is. I did this back in 2015 Oct and man, isn't this one of the prettiest trek in our country. The landscapes, the villages, the pass crossing & then gawking at the mighty Rupin waterfall... every memory is so vivid. There's absolutely no reason for me to not do this trek again.
Oh, another reason why this trek is so close to my heart is because 2 of my best friends bonded over this trek & eventually got maried :)))
That's wonderful to hear. Glad to hear about your experience of this majestic trek. :)
Hello Team , we have booked trek in first batch of may this year...i guess we won't see free flowing waterfall...like in video is that correct...
How can i book ?
Everything said about RUPIN is true. Attempted in 2022 September batch, however, non stop rains didn't let us cross upper waterfall. It's a beautiful trek, an unfinished one 😐.
wapas jao. its free in Indiahikes. just gotta bear the travel expense but its worth it
You're welcome to repeat the trek with us, if you did it with us the first time. You don't have to pay for it. :)
@@Indiahikes yeah I know your policy, I did KGL with you guys in August this year, it was a beautiful trek and batch was amazing as well. Whenever I'll reattempt rupin, I will do in post monsoon season because after doing kedarkantha as my first winter trek, I just can't bear such negative temperatures.
Why is the age limit for Rupin Pass ( and Buran Ghati) kept at 55 years whereas for probably a tougher trek like Pin Bhabha it is kept at 62?
When will be next rupin trek
We have groups starting from May onwards. You're welcome to join us. Find all the details here - indiahikes.com/rupin-pass
In my next birth I wish to trek.
In Rupin pass is there any road that full of snow?? Is it for beginners as well?
It's an amazing trek and the connection you have with nature doing Rupin just can't be put in words. I am so happy India hikes did such a nice job articulating this. Definitely just go for it. As for your question, it's highly unpredictable when there will be snow and when there won't be snow. Needless to mention, trek will be cancelled if there is excess snow. Also, it's not for beginners as it's a moderate to difficult trek but many first timers complete this trek as well, as long as you are fit enough.
BEST TIME TO WITNESS SNOW IN THE TREK?
Can I do this trek on 10th may
It's best to time your trek from mid-May onwards, because many times, trekkers are unable to cross the pass in the first half of May with too much snow. We would suggest delaying by at least one week and planning the trek.
We have groups starting from May 15th onwards. You'll find them here - indiahikes.com/rupin-pass
Best time to visit ??
May-June or Sept-Oct
