Detailed Itinerary
Day 01: Delhi to Shimla (330 km, 7hrs)
Christ Church at Ridge, Shimla
Our journey starts from Delhi on National Highway 22 into the heart of the Himalayas. Driving along the low hills and eventually gaining an altitude of 6500 ft to reach Shimla is a beautiful experience in itself. Curvy roads snaking through forests of pine, deodar, and oak trees offer glimpses of small beautiful villages on the way. We reach Shimla by evening. After taking a stroll at the historic The Mall Road, we call it a day at a hotel.
Day 02: Shimla To Kufri To Naldehra (50 km, 2 hrs)
Naldehra
This day starts with exploring small market of Shimla city and sightseeing around the city. Then visit Kufri – one of the most popular tourist destinations in India. The place is a tourist hotspot for its scenic beauty and sports activities. Then we proceed to Naldehra via Mashobra. Naldehra is home to a historic golf course amidst dense deodar forests dating back to the British era. Overnight stay at a hotel/cottage.
Day 03: Naldehra To Shali Tibba (Trekking Day) (3208 m)
Shali Tibba
Our day starts early in the morning as we take a connecting road to reach Khatnol – basecamp of the trek. The landscape changes dramatically as we climb the ancient trail towards the peak. It is a four-hour climb. Tough final climb and imposing peak ahead is amply rewarded by the breathtaking view from the top. It is a must-visit historic temple where legend states that one’s wishes come true. We reach the top by evening, which is the place for an overnight stay in camps/saray.
Day 04: Shali Tibba to Shimla (45 km, 2.5 hrs)
Christ Church at Ridge, Shimla
The day starts with an amazing 360-degree view of the surroundings and a quick descent back to Khatnol, where the car picks us up to drop us at a hotel in Shimla. As we have ample time at hand, we explore 1-2 spots off the way before checking into a hotel.
Day 05: Shimla to Delhi (330 km, 7 hrs)
After breakfast, we head back to Delhi on the same road and reach home with a collection of beautiful memories.
