Himachal Backpacking Trip

Day 1 : Delhi to Bhuntar

Reach the Capital of the country and start your journey leaving all the chaos behind towards the mystical land of the Himalayas.
Overnight Volvo bus journey to Bhuntar.

Day 2: Bhuntar to Banjar

Board your wagon and proceed towards the Tirthan Valley.
Open your eyes after a good night's sleep and be ready to be welcomed by the hospitality that Himachal has to offer. We will be going to a lesser-known paradise called Tirthan Valley i.e the home to The Great Himalayan National Park. We will be visiting the infamous Chhoie waterfall and explore the area around it. In the evening be ready for some meditation and experience the fun that trout fishing has to offer in the Tirthan River. Done with the catch? Now it's time to roast your food on the fire while enjoying the starry night sitting beside the fire.
Overnight in Banjar.

Day 3 : Jibhi

We will be traveling ahead to the high points in the valley today. Jalori pass connects Shimla and Kullu valley and it's a trek start point for the unknown Raghupur fort. This trail was one of the accesses from inner Seraj to outer Seraj during British Raj, they used this trail to pass their caravans, while they were crossing from Kullu to Rampur or Shimla. From the top you start your hike to The Raghupur Fort, the walls of the fort are marked by bullet holes from sieges as it was built by the rulers of Mandi to protect themselves from invasion. So, yeah we are crossing paths with history today. Come back and relax in a cozy homestay talking about the local folklore of the area.
Overnight in Jibhi.

Day 4 : Jibhi to Manali

Pack your bags as we are ready to move into another valley of Himachal Pradesh i.e Kullu Valley. We start moving towards it in a car but need to take a detour via Water as we will be doing River Rafting. After paddling I hope all are hungry so we will move towards the hotel and have a hearty lunch to warm ourselves. Recharged? We will now do some local cliché sightseeing in Manali going to Hadimba temple, Mall road and The infamous Old Manali, and yes we will be going to a café for Dinner.
Overnight Stay in Manali.

Day 5 : Manali to Jispa

Today is the day many people were waiting for, Time to Fly. We are visiting Solang Valley and it has the best views to offer for a person who is doing Paragliding. Time to land as we are humans only, so will be doing something humanly, we will be going on a small hike to Anjani Mahadev if time permits. After absorbing all the lush green beauty Kullu has to offer now it's time to move into the third dimension of Himachal I.e Lahaul Valley. We will be driving beside the Chandra and Bhaga Rivers to reach our next destination i.e Jispa.

Overnight in Jispa.

Day6 : Jispa to Manali

Wake up time! We will be driving past the last village in Lahaul Valley i.e Darcha to reach the Baralacha La, as the saying goes climb high and sleep low. We will be driving back to Manali for the night but have to have a pitstop at Kalath hot water springs to get away with all the chills and aches that life has to offer in the mountains.
Overnight in Manali.

Day 7 : Manali to Delhi

Been a while we are in Himachal and now is the time to have some lip-smacking local Pahadi Food at Jana Waterfall. We are sure that after lunch the belly is so full that we need to have some sleep. So if you want we can go for it as we need to go for a hike in the late afternoon to Sajla waterfall. Late in the night, we will have to say goodbye and our journey for the time. Board your bus to Delhi.

Overnight bus to Delhi.

Day  8 : Reach Delhi
