Done in Aug . Very thrilling, adventurous, and not a beginner trek continuously 8 -9 days trek of daily 10km, If planning to go, go before monsoon. Monsoon makes the terrain slippery and Parvati River becomes wild, with lots of boulders. Continuously 7 days we hike, then later on long long terrain of Mud Valley.
As they say, you’ll never know your limits unless you push yourself to them. In August we thought of pushing ourselves for 110+ kilometers cross-over trek from lush green Parvati valley to cold arid Spiti valley in the Himalayas
Nice experience.......!!!!!!!!!!!! With 17, 500 Feet to be gained above mean sea level, roaring Parvati and Pin rivers to be crossed innumerable times, some precarious vertical rocky wall sections to be negotiated, and acutely narrow trails to be traversed in 9 days, PIN PARVATI PASS appeared to be a perfect dose of the challenge we were craving for! And we loved every bit of it. You can check out my blog (link in my profile) for more details.
The park is located in the desert habitat of the Spiti Valley, within the Cold Desert Biosphere Reserve, in the Himalayas region. This cold desert is situated from the height of 11000 feet to 20000 feet and is known for medicinal plants available only in this area. The landscape view is very beautiful and unique.
Pin Valley National Park is a simple heaven. If you go in winter then you might see winter animals. When we had gone there we didn't see any animals. Good for driving. Mud village is the last village of Pin Valley National Park.
Pin Valley is situated in the Lahul & Spiti district of H.P. It is one of the hidden gems of Spiti Valley. On day third i.e. 20th June 2018 early morning after having breakfast we traveled from Kaza to Pin Valley. Our cab driver Varinder Pal Singh took the road toward Dhankar.

The best time to go for the Pin Parvati Pass trek is during the summer months of July to September. This is the time when the paths here are clean and one can easily cross almost any kind of blockage.
Pin Parvati trek is extremely safe to conduct under the guidance of trained trekking professionals. It is not advisable to undertake the journey if you are trekking for the first time or are new to hiking through the Himalayas.
Another thing to keep in mind is that if you are traveling to Spiti valley on your own vehicle, it is advisable to take the Manali Leh Highway, instead of the Kinnaur route. The Zoji La pass is extremely treacherous to cross, especially in winter. It is better to take a bus if you want to take this Highway.
