Kankot Dhar Dhauladhar Chamba Himachal Pradesh

Kankot Dhar is a 4050 meters high mountain over Dhauladhar mountain range. It is situated on the west side of Dhauladhar mountain range and it is the last above 4000 meters mountain of Dhauladhar range leading towards Dalhousie town of Chamba Himachal Pradesh. Because of this it is visible to a wide area of Chamba district of Himachal, Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and some areas of Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh.

Kankot Dhar is a beautiful pyramid shaped mountain that is clearly visible from the main town of Chamba. It remains covered with snow around the year and enhances the beauty of Chamba town.

Kankot Dhar is definitely the best and one of my favourite treks in Chamba that you can do all year round. Though it is a bit tough to summit during winters but still the thrill and beauty of this trek worth everything.

Also one is from winters while other is from summer. I’ve shared every details in the video but if you still have any queries feel free to ask in comments.🙏

So in winters it may get risky in some points because of steepness of the trail but it’s just 2kms from Dhulara so go slow and start early and you’ll reach there easily and if going in snow make sure the day is clear and you’ll be fine.
