Highlights of the tour

This amazing 3-day drive will take you to one of the most beautiful places near Shimla, home to some of the most delicious cherries and apples and in fact, the first apple sapling in the country. One can see empty and packed crates of these fruits on the roadside, at various points on the way. Thanedar (8100 ft.), is slightly higher than Shimla (7,400 ft.) and the road linking the two runs almost near the crest of the mountain with a gradual ascent. One is constantly treated to a bird's-eye view of the different valleys as the road twists and turns from one spur to another. Especially breathtaking is the view of Narkanda from Fagu, a small village en route. Below Narkanda, to the north is the Sutlej Valley and beyond it is the snowy massif. The ridge on which Thanedar stands is the watershed between the Sutlej on the north and the Giri River as well as between the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal.
