As you pass through the foothills and the Satluj River valley to Kinnaur, hidden villages unfold. This area is rich in Himalyan culture and the livelihoods of the locals are evident here.

After seeing colourful Buddhist monasteries from the 8th century, you will get a sense of the immensity of the Himalayas as you cast across to the high desert Himalayas – an area cut off by snow for 6 months a year and with peaks of more than 6000m.

This trek goes from village to village and there is a chance to visit schools and local families on the way as we pass their villages and fields. Often we have lunches or picnics in their authentic kitchens. It gives Travellers an special opportunity to immerse themselves in the authentic and rich regional culture of the Tabo, Dankar, Lalung and Langza in an area referred to as ‘Mini Tibet’.
