Good to Know

When is the igloo stay open?

December, January and February only, depending on snowfall. Tell us your dates and we will confirm what is possible.

How do we get there?

You meet at a pick-up point on the Manali-Naggar road, then take a snow drive of about an hour in a 4x4 and a forest walk of around 30 minutes. The exact meeting point is shared on booking.

What if the snow or weather is not good?

Snow activities and the road depend on snowfall and weather. Heavy snow can block the road for a few days, so we agree dates carefully and discuss options with you if conditions change.

Can I turn the day trip into an overnight stay?

Often yes, if the dates are open. Ask us when you book and we will tell you what is possible, or have a look at the One-Night Igloo Stay.

How do I book?

Send a booking request on the booking page. It goes to us on WhatsApp, and your stay is confirmed once we reply. There is no online payment.
