Welcome to the lesser-known Himalayas! Hidden and cut off from all for most of the year, the valleys of Kinnaur and Spiti emerge from their cloak of snow only for a few months. And what a world they reveal. About 176 kms from Shimla, you journey into the inner Himalays starts from Sarahan. A beautiful they village surrounded by magnificient snow peaks and apple orchards this was the ancient capital of Rampur. Bushair, one of the princely states in the Shimla hills.
