About This Package
Discover the Spiritual Essence of Dharamshala
Your journey begins with a scenic drive from Pathankot to Dharamshala, the residence of the Dalai Lama. This hill station is divided into two distinct parts: Lower Dharamshala and the upper reach known as McLeodganj. Here, you will witness a unique fusion of Kangra culture and Tibetan traditions. We take you to the serene Tsuglagkhang Complex, where the rhythmic chants and fluttering prayer flags provide an immediate sense of peace. Explore the Bhagsu Nag Temple and the nearby waterfall, a perfect spot for nature lovers to unwind. For sports enthusiasts, a visit to the HPCA Stadium, one of the most beautiful cricket grounds in the world, offers a stunning backdrop of snow-capped peaks.The Colonial Elegance of Dalhousie
As we transition from the spiritual vibes of Dharamshala, the tour moves towards the vintage charm of Dalhousie. Established during the British era, this town is spread across five hills and retains its old-world architecture and quiet lanes. You will visit the historic St. John's Church and take a leisurely stroll through the Tibetan Market for exquisite handicrafts. The crisp mountain air and the scent of pine forests make every moment in Dalhousie feel like a step back in time. Our itinerary ensures you have plenty of time to enjoy the panoramic views of the Ravi River valley and the distant plains of Punjab.Experience 'Mini Switzerland' at Khajjiar
The highlight of this package is undoubtedly the excursion to Khajjiar. Situated amidst thick deodar and pine forests, this saucer-shaped meadow features a small lake at its center and a floating island. Whether you choose to indulge in zorbing, horse riding, or simply sit on the lush green grass and admire the Kalatop Wildlife Sanctuary, Khajjiar promises memories that last a lifetime. On the way back, we stop at Panchpula, a picturesque spot where five streams meet, dedicated to the memory of freedom fighter Sardar Ajit Singh.
