Tips

If you have extra time, consider adding a full day in Manali to explore the Johny’s Adventure Park or take a trek to the Beas Kund. Conversely, to shorten the trip, you can skip Rohtang Pass and spend the final day relaxing in Kullu’s hot springs before your return flight, which reduces both travel time and cost.
