About This Tour

Kanamo Peak at 5,964 metres (19,567 ft) stands as one of India's highest non-technical summit challenges — achievable without mountaineering equipment like fixed ropes or crampons, yet demanding enough to be a serious achievement for any trekker. Set in the spectacular cold desert landscape of Spiti Valley in Himachal Pradesh, Kanamo offers views that extend from the Spiti range to Kinner Kailash and clear to the high peaks of Tibet on a clear day.

The journey begins with the famous drive from Manali to Kaza via the Rohtang Pass and Kunzum La — itself one of the great high-altitude road experiences in India. Kaza (3,800m) is the administrative capital of Spiti, a small town of whitewashed buildings at the confluence of the Spiti and Pin rivers, surrounded by barren ochre mountains. Two days are spent here and at the nearby village of Kibber for acclimatisation — essential before attempting a summit above 5,900m.

The route to Kanamo base camp (4,300m) passes through the upper reaches of Kibber village — one of the world's highest inhabited villages — and into raw, boulder-strewn terrain typical of Spiti. The base camp offers stark, immensely beautiful views of the Spiti Valley far below. Summit day is long and physically demanding, gaining nearly 1,700m of altitude from base camp, but the summit views are among the most extraordinary in the Indian Himalaya — a complete 360-degree panorama of a landscape that looks more like the moon than India.

Junegiri Yatra provides experienced high-altitude guides with Spiti experience, full camping equipment, all meals, oxygen and emergency supplies, and inner line permits for the Spiti restricted area. Prior experience of trekking above 4,000m is mandatory for this trek. AMS protocol is strictly followed.

Drive from Kaza to Kibber village (4,205m). Begin trek from the upper edge of Kibber through boulder fields and high-altitude scrub desert to the Kanamo base camp at 4,300m.

DAY 4

Day 4 — Base Camp Acclimatisation Hike

📍 High camp acclimatisation / Altitude 4,300–4,600 m

Full day for acclimatisation at and above base camp. Morning hike to 4,600m, then return to base camp to sleep low. This 'climb high, sleep low' pattern is essential for preparing the body for summit day. Afternoon rest, good nutrition, and hydration. Guide reviews summit day route and weather forecast. Early bed — 3am wake-up tomorrow.

DAY 5

Day 5 — Summit Push to Kanamo Peak (5,964m) and Return

📍 Trek to summit and return / Max altitude 5,964 m / 10–12 hrs

3am wake-up. Depart camp in the dark with head torches. The trail climbs steep scree, boulder fields, and in early season some snow slopes. The final ridge walk to the summit requires care but no technical equipment. At the summit (5,964m), on a clear day the view extends to Kinner Kailash, the Bara Shigri glacier, and peaks across the Tibetan border. Return carefully to base camp, then drive back to Kaza for the night.

What Travelers Say

★★★★★

“Standing on Kanamo summit at 5,964m with Tibet visible on the horizon — I cannot describe what that feels like. Two years of trekking led to this moment. Junegiri Yatra's guide, Tenzin, was outstanding. The AMS protocol was serious and thorough — I felt safe the entire time.”

★★★★★

“The Spiti Valley drive alone is worth it — but standing on top of Kanamo with the entire cold desert spread below us was another level entirely. The acclimatisation plan was well-designed and I had zero AMS. This is the best trekking experience of my life.”
