About Himachal Pradesh
Himachal has a mountain trip for everyone: family-friendly Shimla and Manali, the backpacker cafés of Kasol and the Parvati valley, the wooden villages of Jibhi and Tirthan, and Spiti's high-altitude desert.
Overnight Volvo buses from Delhi make it the easiest weekend Himalaya, and the Atal Tunnel now brings Lahaul within a day trip of Manali.
- Best time
- March to June and September to November. Spiti's Kunzum Pass is usually open June to October; winter brings snow to Manali.
- Ideal trip
- 6–7 days for Manali–Kasol–Jibhi; 10 days for Spiti
- Getting there
- Overnight Volvo from Delhi to Manali (12–14 hours) or Bhuntar. Flights to Bhuntar and Shimla are limited.
- For visitors from abroad
- Rohtang Pass needs an online permit and is closed on Tuesdays. Foreign nationals may need a permit for parts of Kinnaur and Spiti near the border; we check the current rule and arrange it.
