With
spectacular snowy peaks and plunging river valleys, beautiful Himachal is
India’s outdoor adventure playground. From trekking and climbing to rafting,
paragliding and skiing, if it can be done in the mountains, it can be done
here. A convoluted topography of interlocking mountain chains also makes
Himachal a spectacular place simply to explore, by bus, car, motorbike, jeep or
foot. Every pass crossing into a new valley brings you into a different world,
with its own culture, deities and even language. Villages perched on staggering
slopes enchant with fairy-tale architecture and their people's easy-going
warmth. Hill stations appeal with a holiday atmosphere and colonial echoes,
while backpacker magnets lure with chilled-out vibes and mountain beauty
