CHITKUL , INDIA
WELCOME TO THE ANOTHER BLOG OF
TRAVEL ROUND BY DHRUV
Chitkul Village is that distant spot on the map where travel stories end. Overwhelmed by the mountains and bogged down by the journey, travel experience is a quiet one in this remote village of district Kinnaur. However, if you stay long enough, talk to locals and read about it, truly enchanting stories await you here. What I understood during my stay here is that there's more to this little town than the surreal peaks and the mesmerising Baspa river.
Unlike the people in the other towns of Kinnaur district, the original inhabitants of Chitkul and the sister villages of Rakksham and Sangla have no trace of mongoloid features. Tall and strikingly fair, some researchers have traced their ethnicity to the Khamba tribe of eastern Tibet and some associate them to the dards of Northern Himalayas but the exact origin remains a mystery.
Where to eat?
All homestays and hotels in Chitkul offer freshly prepared homefood. Food is also available in the Zostel restaurant where you can enjoy the food with a view.
What's the best time to travel?
Best time to travel to Chitkul to from March to October. However, it's best to avoid the monsoon season in the region.
