What to Expect
Dusty off-roading, homestays with basic dry toilets, starry skies that make you question your existence, and a deep dive into Tibetan Buddhism. No luxury, pure adventure.
- AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) is a real threat. Don't rush the ascent.
- Roads? What roads? Expect to be tossed around in your tempo traveler for hours.
- BSNL is the most reliable network. Jio works in Kaza now, but do not rely on it.
- Dry compost toilets are common in village homestays. Get used to them.
- Temperatures drop drastically at night, even in the peak of summer.
Things to Do
Plan Your Trip
Take an overnight Volvo from Delhi or Chandigarh to Shimla. From Shimla, hire a 4x4 or join a group tempo traveler to take the Hindustan-Tibet highway via Kinnaur. The Manali route via Rohtang and Kunzum Pass is shorter but triggers altitude sickness rapidly.
Local Guide
Must try: Thukpa, Momos, Tingmo (steamed bread), Butter Tea (Cha-cha), Sea Buckthorn juice
Don't expect fast food service. Meals are cooked fresh from scratch in homestays. Order your dinner by 7 PM so the hosts can prepare.
