Gulaba is a tourist destination primarily because of its natural environment.[citation needed] It offers views of the surrounding mountains and, during winter, it is covered in snow, attracting visitors for skiing, snowboarding and other winter sports.[citation needed] Additionally, Gulaba serves as a starting point for treks and hikes to explore the Himalayan landscapes, making it a destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers.[citation needed]
The road leading to Rohtang Pass is barred during heavy snowfall season which lasts from November to March. Access beyond Gulaba requires obtaining an online permit in advance, particularly for diesel vehicles due to a daily quota restriction. Petrol vehicles may obtain permits at the checkpoint or utilize local cab services for transportation beyond Gulaba. Visitors intending to explore Rohtang Pass should ensure they secure the necessary permits beforehand to avoid inconvenience or being turned back. Additionally, Gulaba serves as a starting point for the popular Brighu Lake trekking trail.[citation needed]
To avoid accidents, Himachal Pradesh Police has set up barriers to guide traffic. This place is considered to be a starting point for Brighu lake trekking.
