The Igloo Village Sethan was set up in 2019 by locals Vinod and Suresh Bodh, who build about five igloos every year after enough snow has collected in the village. The igloo village is typically operational from mid-December till the end of February or the first week of March, depending on the weather in Himachal Pradesh.
