Rock climbing is often seen as the basic stage for mountain climbing. Yet this may also be treated as an independant sport where the most basic level is climbing or descending a rock face using only hands and feet and a safety rope.
The area around Manali presently forms the core of mountaineering activities in Himachal. The Beas Kund region and the lower reaches of the Hanuman Tibba (5930m), the Manali and the Shitidhar peaks around the source of the river Beas, and the Deo Tibba (6001m) area are suggested for non professional climbers with some experience in the sport. The Chandra Bhaga ranges, the pir Panjal and the Dhauladhar ranges are also an existing focus.
