Description:
The first human inhabitation that one comes across after entering the Lahaul sector, Khoksar is the first village at an altitude of 3140 meters. The village is prone to avalanches which can be even seen piled up near the river bed. The river freezes during winters and is feasible for a regular passage on the other side. Khoksar was on the old trade route from Indian Plains to the west Asia.
In summer though, the village leaves a traveler spell bound when alpine flowers bloom all over the place and the people irrigate with the springs that flow over.
