Kinnaur Travel Guide


KinnaurKinnaur is a breath takingly scenic and sparsely populated region. Spiti and Satluj rivers flow through Kinnaur to meet at Khab and become one the Satluj. Scores of flowing streams feed these rivers and all their valleys are strikingly beautiful the slopes are covered with thick woods, orchards, fields and picturesque hamlets.

Here are two of the world's great mountain ranges the Zanskar and the Great Himalaya. Kinnaur is also home to some of India's oldest legends, and the religion of its people is a remarkable mix of Hinduism and Buddhism. Ancient Hindu texts have gone to the extent of placing the people of kinnaur the kinners as halfway between men and gods.

There is no wonder that a local tradition maintains that Kinnaur with all its beauty fell from the clouds as a gift from the gods.
