Recently, I and my husband visited Hatu Peak. The peak is at 7 Km distance from Narkanda and located at an elevation of 3400 m above sea level. We decided to go there by our own car and I swear, this was the scariest ride I have ever had. The lane was so tiny, with sharp twists and turns, and cars have to brake and move aside or go back, again and again, to give space to other incoming cars. I was on the co-driver seat and had my heart in my mouth quite a few times. But the moment I reached the peak, I completely forgot how scared I was. The beauty on the top was captivating with unique views of snow-lined Himalayan ranges. Along with its mesmerizing beauty, Hatu Peak is also famous for the Hatu Mata temple, dedicated to Mandodari, the wife of Ravana. The return was easy as compared to going up to the peak. It was so great experiencing this paradise on earth and I would not think twice if I get a chance to go there again!

We had a nice family time while walking through the mall road & the ridge. It has everything, a family needs to have quality time together, good street food, variety of shops, horse riding, nice views for those cool selfies, those heritage buildings, cafes, bakeries etc. Best part is that vehicular movement is not allowed, that makes it even better to just walk around. The whole place is clean too, overall it's good to be there and just spend some time together.
