Kinnaur: apple orchards, snow peaks, and the last village before Tibet
Everyone speeds through Kinnaur to reach Spiti and totally misses the point. Kalpa, Sangla, Chitkul — this is one of the prettiest valleys in Himachal, full stop.
See:
Kalpa — the Kinner Kailash peak right from your window
Sangla’s riverside green
Chitkul, the last Indian village on the old Tibet road
Roghi village & the cliff viewpoints
When: Sep–Oct apple harvest is peak gorgeous; Apr–Jun for blossoms. Cost: ~₹18k–30k pp for 5–6 days. Kinnaur tour packages — extendable into Spiti.Slow down. The orchards are the whole point.
