Indrahar Pass

Historically, Indrahar Pass has served as a crucial route for nomadic shepherds (Gaddis) traversing between the Kangra and Chamba valleys. These communities have used the pass for centuries to graze their livestock in the higher pastures during the summer months and descend to lower altitudes during winter. The pass also holds significance in local folklore and is considered a sacred site by some. While not directly involved in major historical events, Indrahar Pass has indirectly facilitated cultural exchange and trade between the regions it connects. Today, it continues to be an important route, albeit primarily for trekking and adventure tourism, preserving its legacy as a vital Himalayan crossing.
