Yalakhom

Yalakhom is situated at a remote yet accessible village in Himachal Pradesh called - Kalgha. Kalgha comes in the way to Kheerganga Trek, so those who are planning to go for the trek may consider staying at Yalakhom, as it is a great place to rewind and relax. I stayed at Yalakhom in the first week of June, the weather was pleasant and the rains made my stay even more pleasurable. When you will be at Yalakhom there won’t be any view you could take your eyes off. The people managing the homestay are also great. They take their time in cooking food, but they will serve you the freshest food possible with wide variety to choose from, that too at such a remote place. The wonderful folks at Yalakhom also offer accompanied guidance for treks, however I wasn’t aware of this until my final day at Yalakhom, so I couldn’t make use of the same. Pemba bhai, Agrimji, Resham bhai and Yangzee didi must be specifically mentioned. They will accomodate you as you are their friend, while respecting your privacy at the same time. I highly recommend Yalakhom notwithstanding your purpose of vacation, be it trekking or taking a peaceful break at the Himalayas.

nice place with authentic food, it was quite calm stay. rooms were pretty tidy. it was total worth to spend weekend, guys at property were very friendly and helpful. had some trip with them around the village. hopefully, visit someday again.

One of the best home stay kind of place that I have recently been to. The location itself is amazing with some amazing views of all the mountains and forest around it. The rooms were neat and clean and spacious. The staff had as very helpful and cooked some amazing food. To access this place you need to park your vehicle near the dam and hike up the mountain, once you are there it’s bliss. Overall, we had an amazing stay
