RE: My Upcoming Solo Travel to Himalaya mountains in India in 10 days but I am having mixed feeling
Thank you very much, not in a hurry, if you can confirm , I would like to know whether I need a permit to travel those places ( manali , kaza, dhakhar , kibber), the information I found online are mixed . the bus timing I need to know is kaza to dhakhar (both ways ) and same for kibber. so that I can budget the cost of private taxi or car just in case.
So here is the update for you.
The bus to Kibber goes from Kaza at 4:00 PM and after dropping the passengers at Kibber it reaches back at kaza in the same evening.
There are probably two buses from Kaza to Reckong Peo one in morning and one in afternoon, and this part of the road is pakka road. They go via Dhanker but reportedly from a trekking distance of about 2 kilometers, and a road distance of about 8 kilometers. If you can trek that much, that won't be a problem. Yet I am not sure it can be that the bus goes via this small alternative route that runs through Dhanker itself, in that case you can step out of the bus next the gate of the monastery.
oh wow, thank you for the informations.thanks a lot.
If you want to travel by the bus, then you don't need the permit. you need it only when you have your own private vehicle.
I am trying to get that other part of information about bus from Kaza to Kibber and Dhankar, once I get, I will let you know. Kibber is only about 10 kms from Kaza, but Dhankar is somewhere near to 40 km, but road is relatively good after Kaza.
I am curious, why you want to visit Kibber? It was famous because it was the highest motorable road, but now Komik(only about 9 km from Kaza) after getting connected has become highest motorable road in the world.
Langjha(another nearby village) is also a very good option. you can stay there overnight in homestay and they charge only 600-1000 rupees(including meals) per person.
no reason , and I m up for other options too , just a few places around with great views, I will read up on the places that you mentioned.
Ok, do you research, all the best.
