Yes. Rohtang Pass requires a government permit with daily limits. We assist all travelers booked under our stay+cab bundles or car rental packages in applying for these permits. Permits are subject to availability on the government portal.
What documents do I need to rent a bike?
You must have a valid physical Driving License for two-wheelers with gear, and a government ID (Aadhaar or Passport). We do not accept digital copies on phone for security reasons.
How does Dana Trails support the local community?
We employ local guides, partner directly with family-run homestays, and lease vehicles from local operators. We also run regular trail-clean campaigns and request guests to bring zero single-use plastics.
