Himachal Pradesh ([ɦɪmaːtʃəl prəd̪eːʃ] ( listen); literally "snow-laden province") is a state of India located in North India. Situated in the Western Himalayas, it is bordered by states of Jammu and Kashmir on the north, Punjab on the west, Haryana on the southwest, Uttarakhand on the southeast, and the Tibet Autonomous Region on the east. At its southernmost point, it also touches the state of Uttar Pradesh. The state's name was coined from the Sanskrit—Him means 'snow' and achal means 'land' or 'abode'—by acharya Diwakar Datt Sharma, one of the state's eminent Sanskrit scholars.

Kunzum Pass

Reviewed By AakashK190 - New Delhi, India

It's was July 2019 when we crossed this pass enroute chandertal. We were the first group of bikers that season to cross this pass. The feeling was amazing. Beautiful landscapes on the way to pass. After the losar check post as soon you start riding on this pass the feeling is amazing, though the roads are bad but it's worth it.

went to GHNP for the trek with my two elder siblings and it was a time of our lifetime. It was in early october of 2019 when we went there and probably the best time to visit the place.We went with a local guide named Tek Singh. He achieves the impossible alongwith his team, what you get is a genuinely authentic GHNP experience without having to compromise at all on comfort or safety. GHNP is also rich in wildlife, incredible scenery & Tek Singh's amazing staff made all the way a better experience for us. I am glad to have found out about this place and would love to go again with Tek Singh and his team. You can contact the guide Tek Singh on his contact number +918318764151

The roads are bad as soon you cut off from the main highway towards kaza. The trail has amazing landscapes along the way. We stayed at mudh which is the farthest we could go. The landscapes are amazing from there.

Himalayan Caravan Adventure

Reviewed By rearke - Jakarta, Indonesia

I first met people from HCA when I asked for a direction of my hostel and they were so nice and helpful, so when I already found my stay, I strolled around and stopped by again in HCA. It was already pretty late night but Raj friendly welcomed me (even he offered a cup of coffee which I happily accepted it =)). He was so friendly and shared a lot of information about things to do in Manali. (At first, I asked for more information about cycling and he didn’t really suggest it because it was pretty crowded and packed at that time and there was also no suitable path for a biker). For me, it was really good to have a local recommendation. In the end, I decided to have a day hike to Lama Dugh because I want to maximize my short stay in Manali (and Lama Dugh looked so beautiful from the pictures Raj showed me). I went hiking to Lama Dugh with another guy, Ravi. At first, I met 3 girls who were about to off for 4 days trekking somewhere I was really envious of and they said I was so lucky to go with Ravi. In the end, they were absolutely right, Ravi is a perfect company to have a day hike in such a beautiful place. =) From the beginning, Ravi shared some practical tips that are very useful for me. I was a slow walker and he patiently adjusted to my pace. He was quiet, relaxed, warm and friendly. What I like the most from him was he gave me some space and time for myself to fully admire and enjoy the amazing nature around us yet he was still managing the trek at a constant pace with some small breaks in between the hike, so it’s not about reaching the top but to enjoy every moment we’re having that mattered the most. He was also resourceful and knowledgeable about outdoor life and for me, it was nice to be with someone who was really passionate about what they are doing. To spend some times in nature, having a good companion is important. I highly recommend HCA if you want to have good outdoor times in Manali because they are such an extraordinary professional team who will offer you not only adventure but also warm and genuine friendship. I wish to visit Manali again for other hiking trips. =)
