Highlights

  • Experience Hill villages

Detailed Overview

Clouds dipping in the valleys, hanging cliffs, forested path, trails branching off in both directions, calls of some Himalayan birds and a few village houses sheltered by the wilderness are the main features of this trek. There is nothing here that does not fascinate you. You are going to be here with yourself. Shali peak dominates the entire region and is clearly visible from Shimla to the north. The peak is named after a local deity as locales tell various stories. Initially, people used to walk up to the peak through various trails but in 1936 Raja of Faridkot built a designated path that is still used. From the peak, you feel like watching the Google Earth as all the valleys around are so deep that you feel like floating in the air. Locals visit the temple on the top of the Shali peak almost every week that is dedicated to Maa Bhimakali and is situated on a round shaped plateau with a square platform on the top.
