2. The long and winding trek from Chicham village to
Spiti Valley to Changthang (Ladakh) and then onto
Tibet, is a Trans-Himalayan trek which retraces the
ancient and renowned trade routes.
Parang La is perched at an altitude of 5,600mts
and connects the Spiti Valley to Ladakh (High-
Altitude Mountain Desert). On the Spitian side of
Parang La, River Parilungbi meanders and the trail
runs parallel to it and ascends up to the pass and
opens into Ladakh.
