At the height of 8900 fts above sea level, in Kinnaur district of state Himachal Pradesh.227 Kms. from Shimla and 574 Kms. from Delhi. It is a picturesque drive through winding mountain roads with the Sutlej surging furiously across the valley. From the turnoff at Karcham to the majestic Chung Sakhago pass, the Sangla Valley - along the Baspa River - is about 95 kms long. As the spectacular vistas unfold - the meandering river, verdant conifer slopes, emerald rolling meadows, apple and chilgoza orchards, quaint villages, the magnificent snowclad Kinner Kailash ranges - the slumbering artist, poet or introspecter in each of us springs alive.

Verdantly forested with Deodar and the stately chilgoza (Pine), all you can see is a belt of glorious green stretching before you. Orchards, primarily apple, are abundant here. The picturesque little Hamlet of Sangla with its tiny population is well known for trout fishing. Situated on slopes with houses one above the other, and the Kinner Kailash Peak looming large over the horizon, Sangla is also famous for the impressive Kamru Fort, once the bastion of rajas of Rampur Bushehr state. High above the village on a hillock is the Kamakshi temple, the idol of the deity was brought here from Kamakhya Temple in Guwahati.


The swirling current of BASPA RIVER is a home to both rainbow and brown trout. For the enthusiasts it is a treat to angle for trouts in the crystal clear waters of the Baspa River. Day permits can be arranged from the local authorities.
You will need to carry your own angling equipment. On a lucky day, a brown or rainbow trout might bite!
