Zostel Home | Rashil, Lahaul
ZOSTEL HOME
Rashil, Lahaul
A red chalet perched upon a lush green hill, surrounded by houses and vibrant fields, with a dusty brown backdrop of snow-capped mountains, and a river flowing by. This is the dreamy landscape that invites you into Rashil, a tiny but scenic village in the Pattan Valley of Lahaul. Our traditional homestay in the hamlet sits at the end of the town with a 360-degree view of the surroundings, which can be relished from all common areas, private rooms, and the dorm room. Built in wood and decorated with handmade carpets and trinkets, the Home features multiple open and indoor common areas, a warm tandoor and kitchen, and airy balconies to stargaze at night. You'll share your life here with the most jovial family, in which aunty is a great cook of Himachali & Lahauli dishes, uncle brings stories & accompanies you on hikes, whereas the main host, Manoj, takes you on the finest adventures across the region. In Lahaul, summers are marked by gurgling waterfalls & streams, fields ripe with cauliflowers, apples, & lettuce, and lives teeming with warmth and glee. While in winters, a quiet grace looms over the villages as blankets of snow get laid, and then life is all about snowboarding, communal tandoors, weaving sessions, and traditional winter festivals. Indeed, Lahaul Valley brings with it a whole different world which is reflected in its landscape, culture, lifestyle, and seasons alike. Come, explore it in the most authentic way with our lively hosts at their own home.
