Getting here 4 ways in
- By air
- The nearest airport is Bhuntar Airport in Kullu, approximately 90 km away. From the airport, it is about a 2.5 to 3-hour drive to the resort via Manali and the Atal Tunnel.
- By train
- While Joginder Nagar (160 km away) is technically the closest narrow-gauge station, Chandigarh Railway Station is the most practical major railhead. From Chandigarh, take a bus or cab to Manali, then continue your journey to Sissu via taxi or local bus.
- By bus
- The Manali Bus Stand is the nearest major hub, located about 40 km from the resort. From Manali, you can catch an HRTC bus heading towards Keylong and get down at Sissu, or hire a private taxi for a direct drop-off.
- By road
- Drive to Manali and take the Manali-Leh Highway (NH-3) past Solang Valley and Dhundi. You will pass through the 9 km Atal Tunnel. Once you exit the North Portal into the Lahaul valley, Sissu is a short, straightforward drive ahead. The trip from Manali is about 40 km and typically takes 1 to 1.5 hours. Avoid traveling late at night during heavy winter snowfall as the route may close.

Summer (May to June)
Pleasantly cool with lush greenery and the Sissu waterfall at full force. Ideal for families, camping, and clear mountain views.
Monsoon (July to September)
Lahaul's rain-shadow location means less rain. September is optimal for crisp air and clear skies, though July and August approach roads can be unpredictable.
Autumn (October)
The golden month. Sissu’s poplar trees turn vibrant yellow against snow-capped peaks, offering the best conditions for photography and quiet, cool evenings.
Winter (November to April)
A winter wonderland with heavy snow and frozen waterfalls, peaking from December to February. The Atal Tunnel provides access, but always check local road advisories.

Absolutely breathtaking! The views of the Himalayas from our room were stunning. The staff was incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. The food at the restaurant was authentic and delicious. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway!
Rahul S. -
A beautiful property tucked away in the mountains. The rooms were spotless and the bed was very comfortable. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the Wi-Fi was a bit spotty in our room, but honestly, it was nice to disconnect for a few days.
Priya M. -
We had a fantastic family vacation here. The resort organized a lovely bonfire for us in the evening, and the kids loved exploring the nearby trails. Excellent room service, warm hospitality, and a truly serene atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back.
The Sharma Family -
Perfect romantic retreat! Waking up to the misty mountain views and enjoying hot chai on the balcony was the highlight of our trip. The property is well-maintained, and the staff is super polite. 10/10 experience.
Amit & Neha -
Great stay overall. The architecture and vibe of the resort are fantastic, blending right into the Himalayan landscape. The drive up to the resort is a bit steep, but once you arrive, the peace and quiet make it totally worth it. Great breakfast spread as well!
