Die Gastgeber
Wir sind Dorje und Pema, und wir haben unser ganzes Leben in Kaza überwintert. Snowline wird so gebaut, wie hier schon immer Häuser gebaut wurden — dicke Lehmziegelwände, kleine tiefe Fenster, ein Bukhari in jedem Raum — denn das hält auf 3.800 Metern warm. Wir fahren mit Solar und einem Generator, das Wasser ist heiß und der Himmel in der Nacht ist der Grund, warum die Leute kommen.

Warmest house in Kaza in January, and Pema's thukpa is the best I have had.

Minus eighteen outside and I slept without a jacket. The night sky is unbelievable.
Marta K. · Warsaw -
Extraordinary place. Do read their note about altitude — take the first day slowly.

Dorje drove out to meet us when the road was bad. That is who they are.

Über Kaza, Himachal Pradesh
Kaza is the administrative town of the Spiti valley, at 3,800 m on the river of the same name — a cold desert, treeless, and about as far from the postcard Himachal of pine and waterfall as India gets. Key monastery is thirteen kilometres away and a thousand years old; Langza, Komic and Hikkim sit above at over 4,000 m. Two roads reach here: Manali over Kunzum, open roughly June to October, and Shimla via Kinnaur, open most of the year and much longer.

Anreise
Nearest airport: Bhuntar (250 km) or Chandigarh (450 km) — both a long way, and that is the point. By road there are two ways in: Manali over the Kunzum pass, roughly June to October and spectacular, or Shimla through Kinnaur, longer but open most of the year. In winter the Kinnaur road is the only one. We will tell you honestly which is running before you set out.
When to come
Mid-June to early October if you want the Manali road and warm afternoons. Late September and October for the clearest light of the year. Winter here is January to March: minus twenty at night, the valley almost empty, and the reason some people come. July brings some rain but far less than the rest of Himachal — Spiti sits in the rain shadow.

Over Kunzum to the moon lake and back in a day, June to September when the road is open. A shared jeep, a driver who knows the river crossings, a packed lunch.
