Sissu Drop from Manali & Manali Drop from Sissu (4×4 Only)
A Sissu drop taxi service helps travellers plan flexible winter travel beyond the Atal Tunnel. Some visitors travel one way from Manali to Sissu. Others require a safe return drop from Sissu back to Manali.
During winter, Rohtang Pass remains closed. Therefore, all travel to and from Sissu happens via the Atal Tunnel. As a result, drop services depend on snow conditions and safety checks.

A Manali to Sissu drop works well for travellers staying overnight in Lahaul. It also suits visitors planning flexible returns.

Sissu to Manali drop taxi
Travellers staying in Sissu often prefer a return drop to Manali. This option avoids self-driving in winter conditions.
Late morning departures from Sissu usually offer better road grip. Early afternoon arrivals help avoid evening refreezing.
Why 4×4 taxis are required for Sissu drops
Winter roads near Sissu include snow, ice, and shaded curves. Regular taxis may struggle on such surfaces.
A 4×4 taxi improves traction and braking. Therefore, local drivers recommend only 4×4 vehicles for Sissu drop services.

Late morning travel works best in both directions. Snow clearance finishes by this time, and visibility improves.
Early afternoon return remains safer before temperatures drop.
Common mistakes to avoid

- Assuming fixed drop points in winter
- Ignoring driver safety advice
Avoiding these mistakes ensures a smooth winter drop experience.
