As you approach Chicham, I noticed on the narrow road which has a sheer drop on one side, there is not a soul in sight . All alone, you have brilliantly captured the rugged beauty of this isolated and forbidding terrain. I salute your courage, and thank you for all your beautiful videos which gives people who never venture out, to see the majesty of the Himalayan mountain ranges.
So nice. We are unable to come manali from kaza via kunzum pass as the road didn't open in May 2018. Hv to come manali from kaza from the route I went kaza. Really beautiful shot
We have just completed our tour of chamba Mandi aut banzar aani sainz rampur jeuri rekongpeo kalpa nako kaza kunzum pass rohtang pass Manali and finally went to chamba home town on 24 to 28 July 2019
The terrain passes through a road that is prone to landslides, passing off road terrain, stretch of snow and even river flow, really the scenery is very very beautiful... like its.
And thank you too for such beautiful places .. very interesting drives .. Yes , trip by car , bike, motorcycle the most interesing trips.. there is a lot to see..
I did this trip in my diesel Ciaz in last week of 3rd week of May '18. Kaza to Gramphu was just opened two days back before we started. Snow at Kunzum top and Rohtang was much higher and absolutely fresh. It had snowed just a day before.

Oh hats off pal. You could have easily used the “ Akshay Kumar’s Kesari shooting” in your video title for more views but you didn’t because you believed in your own content which of course is awesome to say the least. Through your camera so many of us are seeing these amazing on places which we all want to visit but couldn’t for some reason. Keep up the good work mate. Subscribed!
Thank you very much. These are check points controlled by Himachal Police to monitor tourist traffic. Spiti is all deserted and located near international border. These check points are for tourist & nation security. Do give a like and subscribe to my channel :)
Great..Have fun...juts be extra careful because you are going in a monsoon season...Great chances of landslides / floods etc..make sure you carry good woolen, chocolates, biscuits, water etc in cause you are stuck..Better be safe and prepared..Good luck..Do give my video a thumbs up and Subscribe : )
In which time you did your journey and what the reason behind not taking the road towards chandratal lake? Actually we r planning for July in Spiti that's why I am asking
Hi Manobita, we did this journey in May 2018. Chandartal was on our list. But unfortunately, the road wasnt open and people advised us not to go that road. June / July will be perfect for Spiti. Good luck!
Always beautiful breathtaking videos by you. Enjoyed vicariously. Plan to introduce some drone footage enroute. Explore carrying a paramotor on your SUV to take spectacular enroute shots. Keep up the excellent work .
Thank you very much Sanjay. Thank you for your suggestions. I am already doing that in my new videos. You may wanna checkout my latest videos :) Dont forget to subscribe :)
Okay I will keep that point in mind. Since its already planned we cant change. We might have to come back if we find such bad weather like you mentioned
Dont want to demotivate you guys. But visiting Kinnaur / Spiti in rainy season is life threatening. You may waana do a bit more research on roads conditions in rainy season. Checkout my video of my first Kinnaur trip done in Aug 2010 th-cam.com/video/ehF8oV_QamI/w-d-xo.html
Shimla to Kaza, you wont have any problem. But I would doubt if Kaza to Manali will remain open. Kunzum La might get closed in November. Good luck and do give my video a thumbs up and Subscribe!!
Its not chenab in Himachal, its chandra and from kylong side bhaga river come in Tandi its become chandrbhaga. When it enters J&K then it become chenab
Thank you for the amazing video. By the way you have not shown chhota dhara in detail..I am asking because as i have seen in other videos it's very difficult patch. Could you give some details on that as i am planning to do this stretch in Hyundai creta somewhat in the last week of June.
Thank you very much Deepak..You want be having much problem with Hyundai Creta..but just be careful and take it very slow..good luck. Do give my video a thumbs up and Subscribe : )
Amazing vedio sirji. Hats off. It's a no nonsense vedio. Was pinned to my seat through out the 30 odd minutes. What is the equipment used to record this.?
Lovely video shoot. Whatever you want to say I suggest to upload your video also with the main. For awkward location shoot good photographs and add. Thanks

Really lovely video and thanks for your efforts in sharing as a nice package. When was this done though? I am planning for a trip next month(Oct 2nd or 3rd week). Do you know any website where I can check the status of the Kunzum and Rohtang pass statuses in a more reliable fashion? I am wondering if they are open until the end of Oct (or atleast until Oct 20).

@@LongDrive Great. I will try then. Yes, I watched all of your videos(& thumped up) on that tour and I now have a visualization of the entire route thanks to your videos(& efforts) in conjunction with the google maps and other such videos people have shared. Once again, thank you. Keep exploring & the good work of sharing going :-)
@@ramanac I am also planning to cover kaza to manali road section in late October ...can you share your experience and the road conditions at kunzum la and kaza to manali section in last week of October ...it would be of great help
Were you a solo traveler ? Or you had a company of a friend ? Is your Scorpio 4x4 or rear drive ? I drove the same route in 2015 in my Bolero and felt the need of 4x4 in some places between Chandratal and Grampoo. Have you installed any after market metal engine sump guard as I have met many off roaders who prefer to have it installed. Your videos are addictive and feel like watching again and again. I have lots of video footage but editing is always a painstaking. May your good work continue.
Travelled with a friend. At that time it didnt require 4x4. Plus experience matters too. I have been traveling to these places for around 10 years now. Thank you very much Saikat. Do give my video a thumbs up and Subscribe :)
I had gone in May 2018. The road was not much monitored during that time. I was advised not to go there at that particular time. Could get stuck. So I didnt take any chances
My Himachal is most beautiful place on earth.🥰🥰
