Trip Overview

What’s included in your Trip Culture experience

Sethan Village is an offbeat Himalayan gem offering pristine snow experiences, igloo stays, and authentic village life away from tourist crowds.

Sethan Village is a hidden paradise located just 12 kilometers from Manali at an altitude of approximately 2,700 meters. This quaint Himalayan hamlet has gained popularity among adventure seekers and peace lovers for its untouched natural beauty and winter snow activities. Unlike the commercialized Solang Valley, Sethan offers a more authentic and serene snow experience. During winter months (December to March), the village transforms into a snowy wonderland, attracting snowboarders, skiers, and snow enthusiasts. Sethan is particularly famous for its unique igloo stays—actual ice structures where visitors can experience sleeping in sub-zero temperatures. The village maintains its traditional Himachali character with wooden houses, friendly locals, and organic farming practices. In summer and spring, Sethan reveals lush green meadows, blooming wildflowers, and stunning mountain vistas. The area serves as a base for treks to nearby passes and peaks. Visitors can enjoy village walks, interact with locals, taste authentic Himachali cuisine in homestays, and experience starlit nights away from city pollution. Sethan is ideal for those seeking offbeat experiences, adventure sports, and genuine Himalayan culture.
