An Igloo Affair In Sethan Village, Himachal Pradesh
Living in an Igloo is what we imagined and wanted when we read about it in our textbooks. Now, it is just a matter of reaching Igloo Village Sethan near Manali and you get to stay and live like an Eskimo. Sethan is the best destination to witness snowfall in India. Come winters, the eyes only see snowfall, snow-capped mountains, snow sports and fun in the sunshine. It can only get better if you get to round your vacation by staying exactly the way an Eskimo does- in an IGLOO with modern comforts. This trip to Igloo village Sethan, Manali offers you that experience with a lot more in store!
Sale
After the guests arrive in Manali, they will be received at Prini and driven to Sethan for an experience of a Traditional Himachali Homestay. Surrounded by massive and ancient Deodar trees and in the midst of an apple orchard, this homestay lies in the village of Sethan, a Lahauli village. Sethan is on the restricted project road and this makes it very secluded and solitary. If you seek solitude and nature at its best, this is the place to be.
The next day we head over to our cosy and beautiful Igloo village sethan site. After a day full of snow and adventure activities, the stay in an Igloo is only highlighted by its comfort and luxury.
When we’re surrounded by snow all around, it is difficult to imagine the feeling of warmth when sleeping in a dome made of ice. However, contrary to this, you will be surprisingly warm under the cover of fur lined sleeping bags, tucked in with warm water bottles to shake off the last traces of cold.
After a lovely dinner and BBQ around a bon fire, the lure of a comfortable and warm bed in the Igloo is something that will leave you asking for more.
This entire experience only reaches for the sky when we paraglide back FROM Hampta and fly in to Manali.
The Igloo Affair is an experience and a memory which will be etched in your hearts and its warmth in your soul!
