Mighty mountains capped in snow, lush grassy valleys, restlessly flowing rivers with crystal clear water, orchards laden with fruits and warm & smiling people define the Kinnaur valley in Himachal Pradesh. The place shares border with Tibet, hence a strong glimpse of Tibetan culture is felt here. This “Land of fairytales” is a quaint place that remains snow-clad for six months, much like Lahaul Spiti. Kinnaur is segregated into two prime valleys namely Sangla Valley and the Hangrang Valley. Kinnaur, stretches up to the southeastern Himachal and the zone is blessed with astounding mountain and valley scenery. This mountain town has slate roofed temples, plunging gorges amidst snow-capped peaks, boundless orchards of apple, stretches of seasonal farming and beautiful valleys to awestruck tourist.
