Key point
At ₹15,000–₹25,000, Kanamo is the most affordable path to a near-6,000m summit in India. For context, Stok Kangri (Ladakh) at a similar altitude costs 3x more.
Caution
Budget operators sometimes skip the critical Kaza acclimatization night to save money. This is dangerous. Always verify the itinerary has 2 full days in Kaza.
