YOUR DESTINATION

Kalpa

We have 3 Properties.

Kalpa is a small town in the Sutlej river valley, above Reckong Peo in the Kinnaur district of Himachal Pradesh, Inhabited by Kinnauri people and known for its apple orchards. Apples are a major cash-crop for the region, and many temples in Kalpa are dedicated to both Hindu and Buddhist gods and goddesses. Kalpa is a town with a history of ancient temples. The Sutlej River below hurtles through deep gorges, the winding mountain road is bordered by chilgoza forests. The serenity of this sleepy hamlet was not often visited by foreigners until recently, but there are still relatively few visitors. There are now over 5 places to stay in Kalpa and more, below, in Reckong Peo where travellers must stop to get their inner line permits to continue upwards to the Spiti Valley, which is a small ancient part of what used to be Tibet. Also visible from this place is the sacred Shivling rock on the Kailash mountain that changes its color at different points in the day. Kalpa could prove to be an ideal destination.
