High in the Spiti Valley, at 3,650 m in the village of Rangrik near Kaza, AstroMonks is where the mountains meet the cosmos. We're a stargazing stay, observatory and astro-experience collective built under some of the darkest, clearest skies in India, a cold desert with thin, dry air and no city glow for miles.

Stay in our cosy cottages right beside the observatory dome, and let the night do the rest. Our telescopes are set up on the observing field every clear evening, and our guides take you through planets, star clusters, nebulae and the Milky Way rising over the Himalaya. No experience needed: no telescope, no degree, just a little curiosity.

Come for the stars. Stay for everything around them.
