Visit the iconic and ancient Hadimba Devi Temple, dedicated to goddess Hadimba, the wife of Bhima from Mahabharata. Surrounded by tall deodar trees and lush greenery, the temple is a beautiful sight in the morning. You can take a stroll in the nearby Van Vihar National Park or enjoy a picnic here with your family.
Get ready for a day full of adventure and nature at Solang Valley, famous for skiing slopes in winter and paragliding and zorbing in summer. Try your hand at these activities or just enjoy the scenic views of the Himalayas. You can also stop at the Rohtang Pass checkpoint to take photos and enjoy the view.
Visit the Manikaran Sahib Gurudwara, a sacred Sikh pilgrimage site located near the Parvati River. Take a dip in the hot springs here and enjoy the langar (free food) served to visitors. On the way back, you can stop at the Kullu Shawl Factory to shop for authentic Himachali shawls and handicrafts.
End your trip with a visit to the beautiful Naggar Castle and Museum, a historic castle built by Raja Sidh Singh in 1460 AD. The castle now serves as a museum and showcases traditional Himachali artefacts, weapons, and sculptures. Take a stroll in the castle's beautiful gardens filled with exotic plants and flowers before heading back home.
If you have an extra day, you can add a visit to the beautiful Rohtang Pass, famous for its snowcapped peaks and scenic views. For a more relaxed trip, you can skip the adventure activities at Solang Valley and spend time at the nearby Beas River or Jogini Falls. Book adventure activities in advance to avoid last-minute hassles. Avoid traveling during monsoon season as roads can be closed due to landslides and blockages.
