Chitkul 🌄 is a beautiful Himalayan village in Kinnaur district, Himachal Pradesh, famous for its raw natural beauty and serene vibe.
Here’s a quick snapshot:
• Location: On the banks of the Baspa River, near the Indo-Tibetan border
• Altitude: ~11,320 ft (3,450 m)
• Fame: Often called the last inhabited village on the old Indo-Tibet trade route
Most travelers come to Chitkul for its dramatic mountains, the sparkling Baspa River, and the pride of standing at what is often called India’s last inhabited village. But Chitkul is much more than scenic beauty. Hidden within this quiet Himalayan hamlet are places that tell stories of faith, history, connection, and resilience — the Mata Temple, the post office, the school, and the old Raja Palace.
