Any one know where to stay in the SAINJ valley

Matty Gee · Aug 25th, 2004, 01:15

Any pointers for places to stay either in LARJI or SAINJ villages, or between.

Infact anything about this valley would be appreciated.

Looks pretty intrepid to me, I'm not into climbing vast mountains. All I want to do is go some where shanti, away from where people who are learning Tabla and shouting across the street to each other.
Pavarti Valley has been over run with tourist types.
I went there almost 10 years ago, it was mildly thronging with westerners then. I'd love to go some where where I can practice my Hindi, and not be offered tours in Yiddish.

I haven't got my book yet, but there is a place known as Sai Ropa Guest House which is a class apart.... its in the Sainj or the neighbouring Tirthan valley.... quiet place... ideal for ruminating monks or writers. Its a tad expensive though.
