How did I travel, sightseeing plans, where did I stay, and how much did it cost me are some of the details that I will cover. In the end, it turned out to be one of the best trips of my life. If you were planning to go on a road trip to Kinnaur but weren&#8217;t too sure, my recommendation is that you stop thinking and head out immediately.<\/p>\n<p>This was a trip that was on my mind for a long time. For one reason or another, it got planned but then canceled at the last minute. Kinnaur slowly developed both into a passion and a dream for me. A dream that when realized turned into a memory that I will cherish for the rest of my life.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_80 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Quick Navigation<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6a08a0928c8ad\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999999;color:#999999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999999;color:#999999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6a08a0928c8ad\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/road-trip-to-kinnaur-valley\/#About_Kinnaur_Valley\" >About Kinnaur Valley<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/road-trip-to-kinnaur-valley\/#Road_Trip_to_Kinnaur_Valley\" >Road Trip to Kinnaur Valley<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/road-trip-to-kinnaur-valley\/#Day_1_%E2%80%93_Delhi_to_Reckong_Peo\" >Day 1 &#8211;

It is a hidden treasure for both kinds of travelers \u2013 peace lovers and adventure seekers. Kinnaur region is the mid-point between the higher Himalayas and the lower Shivaliks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You will find followers of both, Buddhism and Hinduism here, and thus the land is full of monasteries and temples, monks, and pandits. And everywhere you see, you would see snow-clad mountains overlooking you.\u00a0 A road trip to Kinnaur Valley is one of the best vacations that you can get.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/kinnaur-valley\/\">How to Plan a Trip to Kinnaur Valley<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From Sarahan to Nako, Kinnaur district spreads from lower Himachal Pradesh to India \u2013 Tibet border. You do the famous Spiti circuit in the Kinnaur region only. But if you don\u2019t have a lot of days at hand, and want to explore an offbeat place with at a shoestring budget, here is your getaway guide.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Road_Trip_to_Kinnaur_Valley\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Road Trip to Kinnaur Valley<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I did this trip, solo, in 5 Days\/6 Nights by spending less than Rs 6000 and just taking 2 leaves over a long weekend. I have been traveling solo for the last 6 years and have taken more than 10 trips in these years. And so I am acquainted with continuous traveling in the mountains. Please head to the comments section if you need more information on the pit stops that can be taken.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_1_%E2%80%93_Delhi_to_Reckong_Peo\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Day 1 &#8211; <\/span><\/strong><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Delhi to Reckong Peo<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I took an overnight bus from Delhi to Shimla from ISBT, Delhi. There are many frequent buses from Delhi to Shimla covering the journey in 8 \u2013 10 hours. The most suitable bus for the onward bus journey is to take an <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/online.hrtchp.com\/oprs-web\/guest\/home.do?h=1\">HRTC bus<\/a><\/strong> at 9 PM which reaches Shimla by 6 AM the next day. They are the most punctual transporters I have traveled with!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Then I took a direct bus from Shimla to Reckong Peo which leaves at 7.30 AM. The distance of 225 km is covered in 10 hours by a local\/ private bus. The ticket costs Rs 420 and the bus halts at every small village and town en route.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you can\u2019t do a back to back journey from Delhi to Kinnaur or have days in hand, you can either halt in Shimla or the neighboring Theog, Narkanda, or Matiyani. Narkanda gives splendid views of the White Mountains and also hosts Hatu Peak, an abode of Bhim Temple. The belt has multiple stay options, from homestays to resorts ranging from Rs 500\/ night to Rs 4000\/night in a luxury resort.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are regular buses from Shimla Bus Stand to these places and the ticket is just Rs. 20 per person. You can also hire a taxi from the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/shimla-bus-time-table-shimla-bus-timings\/\">Shimla bus stand<\/a><\/strong> for your onward journey.\u00a0 Shimla to Narkanda by a bus will take you 3-4 hours, stopping at various stops.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rampur_Bushahr\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Rampur Bushahr<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Or you can also leave for Rampur Bushahr, which is 125 km or 6 hours from Shimla, and halt there for the night. If you are on a road trip but not a frequent driver in the mountains, it is advisable not to cross the Rampur area in the dark as the roads are narrow and require expertise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rampur is the biggest town before the Kinnaur region and offers decent options for stay and food. Rampur was the last capital of the Bushahr dynasty that ruled over Shimla and the Kinnaur region. A large Hanuman temple on one side and the gushing Sutlej River on the other side welcome you to Rampur.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is also famous for the Lavie market, also known as the trade market in the region where there will be abundant options to shop winter clothes, blankets, Kinnauri apples, and apricots. The city also has the famous Padam Palace, which is famous for its blue \u2013 Turquoise woodwork and a colorful glass ceiling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/narkanda\/\">How to Plan a Trip to Narkanda<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Narkanda_%E2%80%93_Rampur_%E2%80%93_Reckong_Peo_%E2%80%93_Kalpa\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Narkanda &#8211; Rampur &#8211; Reckong Peo &#8211; Kalpa<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The road from Rampur to Reckong Peo passes through the small hamlets of Jhakri, Sarahan, Wangtu, Tapri, and Karcham Dam. The 170 km journey from Narkanda to Reckong Peo will easily take 7 hours in an HRTC bus and a fee of Rs 220. It is necessary to get a window seat on the right side of the bus if you don\u2019t want to miss the views of The India \u2013 Tibet Highway.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A mandatory stop is Karcham Wangtoo Hydroelectric Plant also known as Karcham Dam on Sutlej River. The bridge on the Karcham Dam takes you to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/sangla-valley\/\">Sangla Valley<\/a><\/strong> at the India Tibet border. The road is under construction here with tunnels being made to connect Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is advisable to reach Peo by evening so you can find easy connectivity to your stay as the frequency is low for local buses. Reckong Peo welcomes you with the sight of the great mountain Kinner Kailash. If you are reaching the town at the golden hour, you will see the peak shining in the bright golden color. The warmth spread from the mountain will definitely take away all the fatigue of your journey.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From the Reckong Peo market to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/places-to-visit-in-kalpa-and-things-to-do\/\">Kalpa<\/a><\/strong> (which is another 10 kilometers from the Peo bus stand), there are ample options to stay. There are hostels and dorms starting at Rs 300 per night to Hotels for Rs 6000 per night. Most of these can be booked online on various portals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpa.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25193 size-full\" title=\"road trip to kinnaur valley\" src=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpa.jpg\" alt=\"road trip to kinnaur valley\" width=\"800\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpa.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpa-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpa-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpa-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpa-585x388.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpa-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_2_%E2%80%93_Exploring_Kalpa\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Day 2 &#8211; Exploring <\/span><\/strong><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kalpa<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By the time I reached, it was dark and cold. Thankfully, a few locals helped me reach my Hostel between Kalpa and Reckong Peo. I had talked to the owner on my way for a bed in their shared dorm. The windows in the hostel just opened to views of Kinner Kailash and watching it I fell asleep. The next day, I wanted to be on the streets of Kalpa and the famous suicide point in Roghi Village.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After breakfast, I started walking towards Kalpa. I got a lift till stairs to Kalpa Market by a groom. He was going to get married that day. He dropped me at a local route from where, after a little hike with a few stairs, I reached the Kalpa Market. I roamed around for a while in the market, around the Monastery and the Nagin Devi Temple.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Kalpa is a small city surrounded by Kinner Kailash at one end and apple orchards at the other. You can get easy rides to the Chinese Market in Kalpa. Here you will find the Hu- Bu- Lan Monastery and the famous Nagin Devi Temple. Both of these are in the market and easily accessible on foot. Try to wake up early and attend the Morning Prayer at the mandir.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Nagin Devi mandir is closed from November \u2013 March.\u00a0 Even if it is open you cannot enter the main premise of the temple where the goddess is situated. Any tourist who is not a Kinnauri won\u2019t be allowed inside most of the temples in the Kinnaur region. But don\u2019t skip them for this reason. They are architecture wonders withstanding the cold season for centuries.<\/p>\n<p>For more details on Kalpa Village, please take a look at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/kalpa\/\">How to Plan a Trip to Kalpa<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-8.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-27940 size-full\" title=\"kalpa\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-8.jpg\" alt=\"kalpa\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-8.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-8-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-8-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-8-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Roghi_Village_and_Suicide_Point\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Roghi Village and Suicide Point<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I met a co-traveler from Delhi and we hitchhiked our way to Roghi Village to reach the suicide point and sat there for hours talking about our travel stories and also critiquing a few people whose speakers couldn\u2019t let us hear the sound of Sutlej River flowing down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All this area is easily accessible by vehicles, both 2 and 4 wheelers, and thus never quiet. To find our way to a little peace, we walked into the local route of the Roghi village through the Apple Orchids.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Suicide point is at the height of 9711 feet or 2960 meters from sea level and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/chitkul-to-kalpa\/\">offers breathtaking scenery<\/a><\/strong>. It is one of the most deadly cliffs in India. The mountain rocks from one end and a steep valley at the other will give you the adrenaline rush you were looking for on this trip.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The best spot to admire the beauty of this place is a little ahead of the spot, 200 meters where you can sit at one of the rocks and admire the great Himalayas. If you can manage to be on the spot while sunset and moonrise, you will be there to visit the magic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I spent the rest of the day walking around the Roghi village and walked back till Kalpa. I also got a few lifts down to Reckong Peo to witness the Lavie Market. And who can stop a girl from shopping in a street market where the winter wears start at Rs 200 only. After a few bargains and few buys, I headed back to the hostel to spend the night watching the moon over.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25196\" src=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-2.jpg\" alt=\"kalpa sunrise\" width=\"800\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-2-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-2-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-2-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-2-585x388.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-2-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_3_%E2%80%93_Kalpa_to_Chitkul\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Day 3 &#8211; <\/span><\/strong><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kalpa to Chitkul<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We got up early morning and bid our goodbyes to Kinner Kailash. Luckily we got lifts to Reckong Peo bus stand. There is one bus that directly runs between Kalpa and Chitkul and leaves the Reckong Peo bus stand at 9.30 in the morning and reaches Chitkul around 1.30 PM via Karchham, Sangla, and Rakcham; covering the 70 kilometers distance in some 4 hours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But we had different plans; we took a 7.15 AM bus leaving for Shimla and off boarded at Karcham. Karcham dam is the midpoint between Kalpa and Chitkul. Chitkul from here is 40 km and would take you 2 hours by bus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But here\u2019s the catch, there are a very few buses passing from Karcham towards Chitkul\/ Sangla. You will have to take the lift as the bus frequency is very low to 1 bus passing in some 2 hours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We tried our luck with lifts and after 45 minutes of pleading, requesting and freezing in cold winds, we got a lift <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/sangla-valley\/\">till Sangla<\/a><\/strong>. So if you are traveling alone, better take the direct bus only; unless you know the luck favors you. The last bus to Chitkul passes Karcham at around 6:30 PM.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From Sangla, we hitchhiked a little more and then got a taxi till Chitkul.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-6.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-27941 size-full\" title=\"kinnaur bus timings\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-6.jpg\" alt=\"kinnaur bus timings\" width=\"1159\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-6.jpg 1159w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-6-290x300.jpg 290w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-6-989x1024.jpg 989w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-6-768x795.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kinnaur-valley-6-585x606.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1159px) 100vw, 1159px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chitkul_%E2%80%93_The_Last_Village_on_the_Border\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Chitkul &#8211; The Last Village on the Border<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chitkul is one of the most beautiful places I have been to and everyone who visits there would agree. It is the last village on the India \u2013 Tibet Border; and is inhabited by just a couple hundred people. It is situated on the banks of the Baspa River.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It was almost lunchtime when we reached Chitkul and were surprised to find a good amount of tourists and the kind of noise we did not expect.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We checked in our Zostel and immediately left to explore the village. We ate Rajma \u2013 Chawal at the \u201cHindustan ka Aakhri Dhaba\u201d and hiked down to the Baspa River. It\u2019s an easy 10 minutes downhill walk which will take you down to the bridge. Across the bridge is a forest and trail which might lead to Rishikesh in 2 days!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chitkul has an unexplored Flag Peak trek which is a moderate trek as you ascend up. You can ask locals about this because, at times, it can be closed due to snow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From the market, at a distance of 3 kilometers, there is India \u2013 Tibet border\u2019s first check post managed by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.itbpolice.nic.in\/\">ITBP<\/a><\/strong>. You can choose to walk to it or seek help pf any local if you are not driving here. From the check post, India Tibet border is at a distance of 50 kilometers, but the route is not open for tourists of course.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the evening, I sat under the stars and talked about our travel stories with the co-residents of Zostel and went to Bobby Bhaiya\u2019s for dinner.

And if you are seeking one, you can book one of the riverside camps available online. This place will give you time to spend with yourself and converse with other co-travelers in the village as only the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/delhi.mtnl.net.in\/\">MTNL<\/a><\/strong> network is available here and that too in a very bad and broken state.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After a night of laughter and games with the fellow residents of Zostel, I wanted the day to myself. I slept after the sunrise and planned my day to witness to moonrise. I had nothing to do in the entire day; and just roamed around the village, the riverside, and the forest trail with a book in hand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I met many villagers, understood their way of living, educating; and concurring with all odds. I spent some 4 hours by the riverside reading and writing and just hearing the music by the gushing glacier river.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the evening I met another solo traveler and we decided to witness the closing ceremony of the Mathi Devi temple. It is a sight to behold. A temple made of wood and stones was to be closed for the winters when the Goddess would rest. Like we expected we are asked to leave the premises before the final offerings began.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although we sat close to the temple where we could hear all the proceedings on the tempo of the Baspa River. It is one of the best memories I behold of Baspa. I could hear everything and still focus on the bells from the temple.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Magic_of_the_Moon\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The Magic of the Moon<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I had thought the magic was done, and it was time for me to leave this magical place. But then I witnessed the moon rise. A full glorious moon. It took some 30 minutes to rise in the sky and flood the peaks with its Chandni (Moonlight). It took a while to rise up and lit the sky but till then every inch it moved, the mountains sparkled a little more. At midnight, I sat alone for a while to look at the stars, at the river, and the village shining in the moonlight. And I had no regrets taking the trip as a solo wanderer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/sarahan\/\">How to Plan a Trip to Sarahan<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_5_%E2%80%93_Chitkul_to_Delhi\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Day 5 &#8211; <\/span><\/strong><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Chitkul to Delhi<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From Chitkul to Delhi is a long journey. And you have to be physically and mentally ready for it. This was the last day of my road trip to Kinnaur and I was also a little sad about it. The first bus leaves for Chandigarh from Chitkul at 6.30 AM and the next till Shimla at 9.30 AM. I was fortunate enough to get lifts for half of the way till Rampur.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not only it reduced my travel time, but it also gave me a breather to mentally prepare to get back to the office. I took 7 lifts from Chitkul to Rampur. Before Rampur, in Sarahan, a family offered me a trip to the Bhimakali temple. It is one of the 51 Shakti Peeths.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The architecture of the temple represents a perfect combination of Hindu and Buddhist temple style with all the wood carvings. The view from the Bhimakali temple was a perfect closure to my trip. I sat there and had Prasad as my lunch. I took a deep breath and descended down with a teenager\u2019s help. He dropped me till Rampur where we had to deliver the parcel I was carrying for one of my lifts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With all the hitchhike and the travel, I finally boarded the bus for Shimla. To catch my Shimla \u2013 Delhi bus, but the sunsets at Theog got me out again. I off boarded the bus again and strolled on the streets of Theog to catch the sunset, and almost missed my bus to Delhi.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This was a trip that made me more confident, more independent than before; a trip where I took the maximum number of lifts and collected the most smiles, a trip that made a bit more of a storyteller.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpta-suicide-point.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25191 size-full\" title=\"kalpa suicide point\" src=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpta-suicide-point.jpg\" alt=\"kalpa suicide point\" width=\"800\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpta-suicide-point.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpta-suicide-point-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpta-suicide-point-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpta-suicide-point-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpta-suicide-point-585x388.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/kalpta-suicide-point-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Brownie_Points_for_a_Road_trip_to_Kinnaur_Valley\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Brownie Points for a Road trip to Kinnaur Valley<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mentioned below are some other tips that can be of help while planning a road trip to Kinnaur.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mobile_Network_in_Kinnaur_Valley\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Mobile Network in Kinnaur Valley<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Airtel, Jio, and BSNL\/MTNL will work pretty much everywhere, in places like Narkanda, Rampur, Kalpa, Sangla, and Sarahan.
