A StayCraft demo. Not real. A StayCraft demonstration site. This is the Summit design. The property, its photographs and its reviews are made up, and a booking here goes nowhere.

The hosts
I am Vikrant, and I have guided in the Parvati valley for fifteen years. Basecamp is not a resort — it is a place to sleep well, eat enormously, dry your boots and go again at first light. We run guided treks to Kheerganga and Sar Pass, bouldering days on the river, and rafting when the water is right.
Guest love
Vikrant knows every ridge in the valley. The Kheerganga trek with him was the trip.
Bunkroom is basic and spotless. Boot dryer alone is worth the price.
Come to move, not to lounge. Food is enormous and the guiding is properly professional.
Rafted, bouldered and slept like a stone. Exactly what it says it is.
Where you will be
Kasol
Himachal Pradesh
Kasol, Himachal Pradesh
Kasol sits in the Parvati valley at 1,640 m, an hour past Bhuntar, on a river loud enough to hear from anywhere in the village. It has been a trekking town for decades — Kheerganga's hot spring is the classic walk, Malana the strange one, Manikaran's gurudwara and hot springs four kilometres down. The season runs March to November; July and August are green and wet, and the shoulder months are when the trails are best.

The last 800 m to us is on foot from the Kasol bus stand — send a message and somebody will come down for your pack.
Fresh from our oven, by the river
Kasol has always had its bakeries. Ours bakes at six: brown bread, cinnamon rolls, and an apple pie from the Manikaran orchards. Packed lunches for the trail on request.
Timings: 7 am to 8 pm. A whole cake on a day's notice.
The hot spring at the top; six hours up from Barshaini.
Loud, cold and fast — the sound you sleep to here.
An old village with its own laws, reached on foot.
Gurudwara and hot springs; langar runs all day.
