The Kinner-Kailash range is silhouetted against the lovely town of Kalpa, the ancient capital of the Kinners of Kinnaur. In ancient Hindu mythology, the Kinners were birdlike men akin to Gods – midway between man and God.

The trail winds its way to a glacial lake, moraine fields and rock cairns. It normally takes six hrs. to reach Charang La from Lalanti, where about 200 meters at the last stretch is a steep climb. Charang La is a superb vantage point that offers an awe-inspiring view of the Kinner-Kailash range and other stunning snow-capped peaks.

A beautiful valley to relax after a strenuous trek. If a landscape had the powers of casting spells, then the Sangla valley would be a magician extraordinary. Even the rushing waters of the Baspa River that flow through its 95 km length, seem to absorb some of the magic. 2 km from Sangla is the fort of Kamroo, its tower-like architecture resembles that of the Bhimakali complex.
