Highlights

“Chambe da chamba, kithe gaya si?” echoes through the pine-scented hills as you trace the heart of Himachal — from Shimla’s Jakhoo to Manali’s Hadimba. Soak in the dev bhoomi vibe with every aarti in Manikaran Sahib and each step on the trail to Serolsar Lake. In Dalhousie, the charm of Khajjiar will make you believe you've found mini Switzerland. The soul-stirring chants of Gyuto Monastery in Dharamshala blend with the scent of deodar, whispering age-old tales. This isn’t just a trip — it’s a pahadi symphony, with every curve of the mountains humming, “Thandi thandi hawa chali, Shimla galiyan di...”
