What Is The Best Time To Go On The Chanshal Pass Trek?
The weather in the Chanshal Pass is cold throughout the year, and you must carry warm clothes. If you want to see some snowfall, visit from May to July as the weather is good and you can still see snow in the mountains. Monsoon is a time you would strictly want to avoid due to heavy rainfall and slippery routes. If you want to go on a little extra cold weather, you can consider September to October starting.
