Last village of the Parvati valley at ~2,400 m, about an hour's walk above Barshaini; guesthouses and orchards.
Tosh sits on a slope above the Parvati river near the head of the valley. Buses from Kullu via Kasol and Manikaran end at Barshaini, from where it is about an hour's hike. Wooden houses, apple orchards and cheaper stays than Kasol attract backpackers.
