'''Lachulung La''' (el. {{convert|5059|m|disp=or|abbr=on|sigfig=4}}), or '''Lāchālūng La''' or '''Lungalacha La''', is a mountain pass along the [[Leh–Manali Highway]].

However, due to elevation, the hikers face breathlessness during climb and those who have not undergone acclimatisation may face severe symptoms of [[altitude sickness]].<br />
