  This is Why I Love Kasol Kasol is an interesting little town in Himachal arranged along the banks of the waterway Parvati. Regularly known as the 'Amsterdam of India', Kasol is a vacation destination that is quickly acquiring notoriety as a famous center point for adventurers, explorers, and nature darlings. Kasol is arranged 23 kms from Bhuntar and close to the strict town of Manikaran and is perhaps the best spot in the nation just to pause for a moment and chill in the scene of snow-clad mountains, pine trees and murmuring stream.  Kasol is popular for its traveling trails, which incorporate trips to Kheerganga, Yanker Pass, Sar Pass, and Pin Parbati Pass. To get a genuine vibe of the way of life around here, go on a visit to the town of Malana. Found a couple of kilometers from Kasol, Malana is a small villa possessed by individuals living in self inflicted disengagement. Individuals of Malana guarantee themselves to be Aryan relatives, because of which they keep away fro

UNEXPLORED PLACES IN HIMACHAL PRADESH:BEYOND KUFRI AND MANALI

 Himachal Pradesh is a heavenly place that none can forget once visited. Treacherous trekking routes and magical rivers along with quiet monasteries, deep forests and relaxing resorts, there is so much to explore in Himachal Pradesh that you just can’t get enough of it. Whether it’s exploring quaint hill stations or attempting the impossible through paragliding, here’s an intrepid travel guide to some unexplored places in Himachal Pradesh which are not so overhyped yet could take your breath away. 

PLACES TO VISIT

1.Chanshal Pass





                                       

The Chanshal pass also known as Chanshal valley, located about 160kms from Shimla is one of the many unexplored places which best serves the nomadic appetite of the otherwise shackled young brigade tired of the monotonous dawn to dusk schedules throughout the week. This place will definitely be better than a weekend spent doing rounds at the bar and you wouldn’t end up burning a hole in your pocket.
 This place sits on top of Chanshal peak which is the highest point of Shimla district. It is situated at height of 3750 Mtrs. This place is best for bike rides, off-roading adventures, camp fires and hills covered with snow throughout the year  which will leave you with memories to last.
 

2. Churdhar Sanctuary










The sanctuary is named after Churdhar Peak. Churdhar (elevation of 3,647 metres; 11,965 feet) is the highest peak in Sirmour district and is also the highest peak in the outer Himalayas. Churdhar is a holy place related with Shri Shirgul Maharaj (Chureshwar Maharaj), a deity widely worshipped in Sirmour.
 Located in the middle of alpine trees and green grassy pastures, the sanctuary is the dream place to have an encounter with the wild side of the Himachal Pradesh. From the top of the peak, wildlife enthusiasts can take home some amazing views of Churdhar Peak. You can do camping here along with trekking into the deep woods. The wildlife sanctuary holds a religious significance as well. There is a vivid statue of Lord Shiva within the sanctuary; it is a holy place of Lord Shirgul Maharaj.

3. Chandernahan Trek

                                             
                                      
                                      


                                                      
                                                    

 




The base camp of the Chandranahan Lake trek is Janglik. The drive from Shimla takes you past Rohru, from where the road follows the blue waters of the Pabbar river. In an exquisite journey, the road climbs gracefully along the Pabbar, the scenery changing rapidly. From square wheat fields along the river and beautiful Himachali homes, you drive past pretty villages and mixed forests until till you get to the pine forests around Tangnu.

The motorable road at Tikri, just after Chirgaon, turns left and becomes an absolute dirt track for the rest of the way. It takes two hours along the dirt track to get to Tangnu. At Tangnu, the dirt track drops down to the river, crosses the Pabbar and climbs to Diude in swift switchbacks. Janglik is a short walk from Diude.

  • Altitude: 9,200 ft (2,804 m)
  • Time taken: 9-10 hours from Shimla. Pick up vehicles will be arranged to leave from Shimla at 6.30 am.

APPLE PRODUCTION IN HIMACHAL PRADESH I am sitting under an Apple tree in my orchard looking at the crispy red fruits hanging up there. It's late June and the Apple season is around the corner in Himachal Pradesh. A time when Apple cultivators harvest their crops and fill their pockets after a full year of hard work.  Apple production is one of the main and growing traditional businesses in many parts of the elevated state. Shimla accounts for the highest cultivated area followed by district Kinnaur, Kullu, and Mandi. Around 80 percent of Himachal Pradesh's fruit economy comes from Apple. INCEPTION ON APPLE CULTIVATION IN HIMACHAL PRADESH Apple cultivation in Himachal Pradesh is attributed to the colonial legacy like many other things in Shimla. In the late 1880s, a few Apple trees were planted by the British in Mashobra , a village 10kms away from Shimla, then the summer capital of British India. Later on an American missionary named Samuel Evans Stokes , introduced commercial
