Explore the Hidden Gems of Himachal: Kinnaur & Spiti
Himachal Pradesh is a paradise for nature lovers, but beyond the popular tourist spots lie the breathtaking valleys of Kinnaur and Spiti — two destinations that offer raw beauty, spiritual serenity, and unforgettable experiences.
Kinnaur, known for its lush apple orchards and majestic views of the Kinner Kailash range, is a blend of Hindu and Buddhist culture. Visit Kalpa for spectacular sunrise views, Sangla Valley for picturesque villages like Chitkul (the last Indian village before Tibet), and Reckong Peo for traditional monasteries and scenic drives along the Sutlej River.
Spiti Valley, a high-altitude cold desert, is a dream destination for adventure seekers and peace lovers. Famous for its stark landscapes, ancient monasteries like Key Gompa, and charming villages such as Kaza, Tabo, and Langza, Spiti feels like a slice of Tibet in India. Explore the surreal Chandratal Lake, cross high mountain passes like Kunzum La, and experience warm hospitality from the locals in traditional homestays.
Both valleys offer unique cultures, less-crowded routes, and untouched natural beauty. A visit to Kinnaur and Spiti isn’t just a trip — it’s a soulful journey into the heart of the Himalayas.
