Travelers should consider renting a car or hiring a private taxi, as public transportation is limited. A 4-wheel drive vehicle is required to navigate some of the hill roads. The estimated cost for transportation would be INR 15,000-20,000 which includes fuel costs and driver charges. The travel time between destinations is quite long, so travelers should be prepared for extended car rides.
If you have more time, consider adding a day trip to Rohtang Pass or a visit to the Solang Valley in Manali. If you have less time, you can skip the Pin Valley National Park and spend more time in Manali.
The nearest airport to Manali is the Bhuntar Airport (KUU), located approximately 50 kilometers away. However, travelers can also fly into the Chandigarh Airport (IXC) and drive to Manali.
