“Where the Mountains Meet a Legend: A Soulful Stay at Banjara Camp”

If you're chasing mountain with a side of soul, Banjara Camp & Retreat in Sangla Valley is where the heart finds home. Perched on the banks of the gurgling Baspa River, flanked by apple orchards and postcard-perfect peaks, this camp is more than just a holiday—it's a Himalayan hug. But the real story begins with Captain Sood, the man who made it all happen. An Indian Army veteran, he ventured into Spiti back in 1979—long before Instagram made it cool. Since 1994, he’s been the heart, soul, and stubborn mountain spirit behind Banjara. A war veteran who once fought for the country and now fights to preserve the serenity of Sangla, his presence gives the camp its soul. Ask him about border patrol stories over chai—you’ll leave with goosebumps and a grin. Choose from cozy wooden huts, luxury tents, or river-facing rooms, all squeaky clean and designed to let the outside in. Meals are hearty and homely, served with a smile and a story. The staff are as warm as woolen socks in winter—ready with directions, dessert, or a good laugh. What sets this place apart is not just the scenery (though it’s jaw-dropping), or the proximity to Chitkul, India’s highest village—but the sense of community. Guests become friends, and friends return year after year. So if you're looking to trade city stress for pine-scented peace, to wake up to the rush of river water and stories of snow patrols, pack a sweater and head to Banjara. Captain Sood’s got the kettle on.

The hotel was an excellent experience. luggage was taken to our rooms in a luggage trolley. there was parking space for 7-8 cars. the check-in and check out was smooth, but documentation and IDs were not taken while checking in. bonfire was complimentary and very well managed. the owner is a very generous and kind person. the hotel offers full customisation of menu and the chef was happy to prepare all kinds of food for us. best apple orchard in entire Himachal Pradesh. you can eat as many apples you want. you can get fresh apple juice, jam, marmalade and chutney. do not miss these apple products. hot water and heating mattress were present. the hotel doesn't have a clear view of the sea, but you can hear the waves at a silent night. hotel balcony was huge and enjoyable. extremely efficient and friendly staff. a 100% recommended hotel in all aspects.

We , a group of three families, had a splendid and memorable three nights stay at Banjara in Sangla. It is indeed very well placed, near to Baspa river and surrounded by beautiful apple orchards and flowers. Rooms are spacious and good enough. Staff is humble and prompt. Food is delicious and hygienic. The only improvement area could be (IMPO) the portion size and variety of food. Given the tariff, a bit more is expected in breakfasts, lunch and dinner. Otherwise I believe this is the best place to be in Sangla valley.
