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!

Hatu Peak is the highest peak in Himachal Pradesh. The ride to the peak was beautiful with Apple orchards on almost every mountain we rode across. Breathtaking view of the Himalayas at the peak and the temple was a pleasant surprise for us. Fully built on wood, the temple has intricate work carved all around, makes it just beautiful - A must visit place !

It's a nice lovely place a few kilometres away from Narkanda on way to Thanedar. It's looks more like a man made lake and a temple dedicated to Nag devta at one corner. It's a nice quaint place. There is nothing to do here. Go there for a short walk along the lake. There is a small playground near the lake. after visiting this place do go to Thanedar to visit the apple orchards. Apple's in Himachal were introduced by a gentleman Mr Stokes, in Thanedar. A statue of Mr Stokes is also there in the Narkanda market.
