The Bhaba Valley (also known as Wangpo in the local Kinnauri language) is a valley in the northern Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. It is formed by the Wangyur river in the district of Kinnaur, which originates near Bhaba Pass. The Wangtu bridge is the gateway to the valley. There are 17 villages within the valley. These villages are in turn divided into five Panchayats: Katgaon, Yangpa 1, Yangpa 2, Kraba and Kafnu. Most of the valley's inhabitation is in Katgaon village.

The Bhaba Pass connects the Bhaba Valley on the Kinnaur side with the Pin valley on the Spiti side.
