This town is the entry point for Kalpa town. Kalpa is one of the main tourist attraction point for the view of Konnaur Kailash peaks. Roads to Kalpa remains closed in winter months due to snow fall but traffic remains open upto Reckong Peo in winter seasons also.

From here trekking to the peak of Kinnour Kailash is arranged. It takes maximum 4 to 5 days to complete the trekking upto the Shiva Linga and return to Peo. All necessary arrengmetns including porters are to be arranged for this trek. However the view of Shivlinga is very sharp and clear at Kalpa. It is very difficult to locate the Shiva Linga from the group of hills at Reckong Peo.

There are small hotels available in the main market area in the range of Rs 300 to 500. But parking facility is not available. Just outside the market on the way to Kalpa resorts are available in the range of Rs 700 to Rs 1000 depending on the season. As tourist prefer to stay at Kalpa ( 13 KM ) so few resorts are available at Reckong Peo.

Petrol & Diesel available at Peo, if you are travelling further into Lahaul & Spiti then take fuel from here. There are filling stations available at Kaza and other places but this is the reliable place to take fuel for your vehicle.
