Trip Description

Introduction of Destination

Himachal Pradesh “Province of the Snow laden Mountains” is a state in the northern part of India. Situated in the Western Himalayas, it is one of the eleven mountain states and is characterized by an extreme landscape featuring several peaks and extensive river systems. Himachal Pradesh is the northernmost state of India and shares borders with the union territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh to the north, and the states of Punjab to the west, Haryana to the southwest, Uttarakhand to the southeast and a very narrow border with Uttar Pradesh to the South. The state also shares an international border to the east with the Tibet Autonomous Region in China. Himachal Pradesh is also known as ‘Dev Bhoomi’ or ‘Land of Gods and Goddess’.

The predominantly mountainous region comprising the present-day Himachal Pradesh has been inhabited since pre-historic times having witnessed multiple waves of human migrations from other areas. Through its history, the region was mostly ruled by local kingdoms some of which accepted the suzerainty of larger empires. Prior to India’s independence from the British, Himachal comprised the hilly regions of Punjab Province of British India. After independence, many of the hilly territories were organized as the Chief Commissioner’s province of Himachal Pradesh which later became a union territory. In 1966, hilly areas of neighbouring Punjab state were merged into Himachal and it was ultimately granted full statehood in 1971.

Himachal Pradesh is spread across valleys with many perennial rivers flowing through them. Around 90% of the state’s population lives in rural areas. Agriculture, horticulture, hydropower, and tourism are important constituents of the state’s economy. The hilly state is almost universally electrified with 99.5% of the households having electricity as of 2016. The state was declared India’s second open-defecation-free state in 2016. According to a survey of CMS – India Corruption Study 2017, Himachal Pradesh is India’s least corrupt state.

Duration

Himachal Pradesh is covered by so many beautiful and visitors’ recognized places. The main places to travel (Covered with all main facilities) are Shimla, Kullu, Manali, Dharamshala, Dalhousie etc. and so many others. You can start your journey to Himachal Pradesh from different locations like from Pathankot, Amritsar, Chandigarh, Delhi etc. For that you can land all these nearby places by train, bus or flight and start your journey towards Himachal Pradesh. In Himachal also we have airport in Shimla, but the connectivity from other parts of India is very limited. So you can choose Chandigarh or Delhi or Amritsar if you would like to travel by flight and you can add Pathankot if you like to come by train. If you reach to Delhi there are so many options to reach Himachal by road, but it took so much time to reach Himachal. So, we prefer to land @ Chandigarh or Pathankot and start your journey to Himachal Pradesh which saves lots of travelling time on starting and ending day.

Best Time to Travel Himachal Pradesh

Peak Season: –

April to June: Summer lasts from April to June in Himachal Pradesh, and the temperature ranges between 5°C and 24°C keeping the air comforting during the peak daytime while it can sometimes drop down to about 3.2°C in the night time. However, the climate is cooler than the mainland because of the high altitude, plenty of forests and fresh mountain breeze. This season is perfect for sightseeing, shopping and visiting the picturesque villages of Himachal that are easily accessible during the summers. Most treks also take place during this time and start from the main cities like Shimla, Manali and Dharamshala. Alpine zones of the north remain cool even during the peak of the summer, and some high mountains even receive snowfall during May.

July to August: Monsoon begins in July and continues through September with a wide variation in average rainfall. It is highly recommended that tourists visit Himachal Pradesh at the beginning of the rainy season, preferably in June, because the place receives a heavy downpour throughout July to mid-September. The rains affect most of the city life. Some of the tourist attractions are also susceptible to landslides, erosion and floods, limiting the areas tourists can explore. The region receives an average annual rainfall of about 3400 mm and the temperature ranges between 14°C and 21°C. Dharamshala gets the most torrential downpour each year, while some northern regions at higher altitudes like Lahaul and Spiti are classified as cold deserts and hardly receive any rainfall. 

September to October: Winter in Himachal Pradesh is severe especially in the northern parts located high in the mountains. Almost all of the state receives snowfall though it is not very heavy in the main cities. The temperature gets freezing with snowfall in several regions between October and February in Himachal Pradesh. It varies from 0°C to 13°C depending on the altitude. The onset of winter is in November, and it continues until March. The temperatures may drop to well below zero at high altitudes and are near zero in the lower regions. The best places to visit during the season are Dalhousie, Narkanda, Kasauli, Kullu Manali and Shimla. It is the best time to check out the monasteries and temples and to be a part of the annual festivals like Lohri, Halda Festival, Himachal Winter Carnival, Sazo, Dussehra, Ice Skating Carnival and the International Himalayan Festival. This is precisely when tourists get to see the authentic Himachal they want to see. Activities like skiing and other winter sports are operational only during the winter, and that is a truly unique experience. Trekkers find the Himachali terrain challenging and attractive during winters. Most groups arrange trekking expeditions along the Rohtang Pass, Solang valley, Kunzum Pass, Hampta Pass, Bhrigu Lake etc. The routes pass through Deodar Trees, Pine, Oak trees, Ponds and Lakes that make the activity extremely interesting. This is best done between October and November; however, between December and February, on bright days, the climate is also suitable for Paragliding, Skiing, and Sledge Rides amidst beautiful snow-clad locations. There are also some natural hot water springs in the region where one can halt in between their trips. 

Off Season: – The monsoon months, i.e. late July till end of August and the winter months (November to February) are usually off season.
