Chhitkul, a serene village in Himachal Pradesh's Kinnaur district, is the last inhabited settlement near the Indo-Tibetan border, perched at 11,320 feet above sea level.
Untouched by commercialization, it's an ideal escape for nature lovers seeking peace and raw beauty. Surrounded by snow-covered peaks, pine forests, and the Baspa River, Chhitkul offers a mix of natural charm and cultural depth.
The village lies beneath the majestic Kinner Kailash, with scenic wooden homes and apple orchards enhancing its appeal.
Chhitkul is also a haven for adventure enthusiasts. Popular treks include the short 4 km trail to Nagashi ITBP post and the longer 10 km route to Ranikanda Meadows, extending toward Lamkhaga Pass.
The tranquil setting and clean mountain air attract those wishing to disconnect from modern life.
Nearby attractions include Sangla Meadows, offering panoramic Himalayan views, and Kamru Fort with its historic architecture. Don't miss the Bering Nag Temple, known for its intricate woodwork and spiritual significance.
A visit to Batseri village, famous for its apple orchards, completes the experience of this stunning Himalayan region.
