Wooden cottages are made for the stay food is also being served although very few items are on the menu like Rices , Beans and few vegetables tea is also being served the prices are really high which is understandable with the conditions as there are no means of transportation available.

Its takes 3 hours of drive , 90 minutes of a breath taking Jeep Track and 5 tiring hours of hiking to reach there from Naran and its totally worth it.

Staying here for a day and night was a mesmerising experience while sitting in the meadow at mid night without any artificial light around you in the warmth and light of wood fire under the sky full of blooming stars with the temperature falling below 0 degrees it felt like we really really far from the world in which we live , the calm the serenity and only sound of wood crackle was nostalgic and unmatched i still remember when i was leaving next morning my feet stuck i really wanted to stay there for an hour a day or maybe for an infinity.
