Gli host
Siamo Dorje e Pema, e abbiamo svernato in Kaza per tutta la vita. Snowline è costruito nel modo in cui le case qui sono sempre state costruite — spessi muri di mattoni di fango, piccole finestre profonde, un bukhari in ogni stanza — perché a 3.800 metri è questo che ti tiene al caldo. Funzioniamo a energia solare e con un generatore, l'acqua è calda e il cielo di notte è il motivo per cui la gente viene.

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.

Where you will be
Kaza
Himachal Pradesh
Kaza, Himachal Pradesh
Su 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.

Come arrivare
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.
