Kinnaur (Sutlej Valley): Kalpa
Kalpa (2960 m ASL) is an idyllic town in Kinnaur district, perched above its administrative headquarters, Reckong Peo. We had visited Kalpa earlier in 2010 as part of our trip to Spiti. Back then we couldn't spend time exploring the place, hence we included the place in our itinerary for Kinnaur. The roads to Kinnaur are treacherous, but we found them much improved compared to 2010.
Kalpa is hemmed in on all sides by tall snow-covered mountains. The most notable peaks are - Kinner Kailash (6050 m), Jorkanden (6473 m) and Raldang (5499 m).
We visited Paangi village, Reckong Peo, Kothi village, Brelengi village, and Roghi village during our stay. The weather played truant during our stay, but I still managed to get some satisfactory shots.
Pictures in this gallery were taken during 8th - 10th April, 2018.
