What if we tell you there’s another fascinating and a real ‘cool’ stuff to do? Staying in an IGLOO.
You don’t have to travel all the way to Arctic to experience what it feels like to live in a cave made of snow in sub-zero temperatures. You can do this in Manali itself. An adventure travel company, Keylinga Himalayan Adventures, brings to the daredevils a guided trip to the Hemta/Sethan valley (altitude more than 14000 ft), where they have built two igloos amidst snow clad environs, Manali Igloo Stay.
manali Igloo Stay is India’s first igloo stay destination.
ABOUT THE IGLOOS
The igloos can accommodate two inhabitants who don’t mind the frosty temperatures. What adds to the adrenaline rush is the plethora of winter sports here like snow sledging, skiing, snow shoeing, snow boarding.
No person can stay more than two nights in these igloos (that’s the maximum your brave bones can take). Or you can choose to spend one night in the igloo and another at a hotel.
