Rakchham is a hidden Paradise in Sangla Valley, Himachal Pradesh on the bank of river "BASPA".
it is just 10kms before Chitkul Village.
I went there in winters when it was snowing like heaven and temperature was (-15°C ) . This is very small village with high glacier Mountains. if you find a place to traveling solo, this is the best option.
Winters are very harsh there. I was keen to see how people lived in the extreme cold. But I guess as my experience says winters are the best season to see there local's life, How they live, how they servive.
if they, why not we?
You can explore this valley in 2-3 days with beautiful different-different nature views, Can camping there, Hike around the valley in Winters, Meet Locals, sit around Frozen Baspa River sides. It is a picturesque Kinda place.
Rakcham is a very beautiful place. You should definitely visit this place this winters. i recommend you this place for Winters. I must say, You will get unforgettable experience.
There are very less options to stay in winters.
Beacuse in winters this place adope snow on it. roads get snow blanket on the roads.
I stayed at "Kinner Retreat Hotel" which has very beautiful balcony River view.
