Snow Monk Camp 3.42

Snow Monk Camp is situated at the top end of the Salli village on the road leading to Kareri village. The road will soon be connecting to Ghera and Naddi villages of Dharamshala in the near future. The view from the camp is panoramic. It offers sweeping view of the Khauli valley and the river with snow clad mountains to the north, spell binding sights of sunset towards the Khanol village to the west and spectacular sight of the huge reservoirs of Pong & Ranjit Sagar to the south. For the active voyager, there are many treks starting from the “SNOW MONK CAMPS”. The distinguished treks are - Lam Dal & 7 high altitude lakes, Kareri Lake Trek, Baleni Pass Trail, Druni Lake Circuit, Minkiani Pass Climb, Indrahar Pass and Dhauladhar Traverse.

The camp has 12 accommodation tents with all amenities for an adventure enthusiast - One can walk into it as tents have clear 7ft clear height. The tents are large enough for a family of eight also. All tents have electricity with charging points, so as to charge the cameras for the next day to capture those beautiful life time images.

Toilets & showers are modern tiled, neat, clean in a separate area keeping in mind the environment. Solar geyser powers our hot water for bathing. We take pride in saving water, recycling whatever we can. Our towels are washed in cold water to launder as it takes a lot of energy to heat up water — multiply that by the number of loads, and that's a big footprint.

The dining area is a large 30 ft x 40 ft open hall where all our meals are served in buffet style. We use as much organic food as we can. We use ingredients and food that is grown in an eco-friendly way, and locally grown so that is does not have a large carbon footprint because of the distance the ration has to travel to get here. All food is cooked fresh. We take pride in our fresh ovens / tandoors where fresh bread is baked in the form of roti’s naan, paranthas etc. North Indian, street food snacks, South Indian, Tibetan and Chinese cuisines form a part of our menu.
