The pass witnessed Pakistani aggression during both the 1965 and 1971 wars.

They can be approached from both the Parbati-Beas Valley (Kulu District) and the Chandra (Upper Chenab) Valley (Lahaul and Spiti District) in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh.The hill stations of Gulmarg in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir lies in this range.

Last year when I visited Dalhousie, I realized how different it is from other hill stations... It has marvelous views of snow caped hills on one side of the Mall Road in Dalhousie... and these views can't be compared with others ... Like I have seen  Dhauladhar from Palampur but it has view to few hills, but here in Dalhousie, its series of mountains... all covered with snow and have a unique shine during the evenings...
