Situated in the beautiful parvati valley besides the river Parvati is a small village, hidden from the selfish land of money minded people.
A place overrun by hippie joints, cafes, reggae bars and cheap stays is the favourite hangout for those who want to relive the life of the seventies.
The moment you step in, you’ll notice all those Hebrew sign boards everywhere serving hummus and pita bread. And it’s doesn’t take a genius to figure out that this place is filled with Israeli tourists in Indian summers, but it is equally famous with Indian tourists as well.
Things to do:
- Trek to Malana village, which consumes your 1 full day.
- Trek to Kheerganga is another beautiful trekking route.
- Trek to Tosh is yet another beautiful trekking route.
- Visiting Manikaram sahib early morning, and taking holy dip in hot spring there.
- Get high and spend whole day on the banks of river making art form out of the running water.
How to Reach:
- If you are going from Delhi, take a bus from ISBT Kashmere gate to Kullu / Manali
- Get down at Bhuntar
- Hop on to local buses going from Bhuntar to Kasol.
Local Food: considering that they have Israelis coming in so the food is amazing. For those of you who haven’t tried hummus and pita, it’s different and neutral in taste which grows on you very fast. Also continental food served there is great there. Checkout the food options here Food in Kasol. Also add some more places which you think people should know about.
Stay: You have many cheap guesthouses offering you rooms in decent prices. You can roam around before settling for what you like, they have places ranging from budgeted options to big hotels.
The place is ideal for a 3 day trip if you plan to do a trek, otherwise 2 days are enough.
Note: I wouldn’t advise you to travel with kids. Rest is your wish
Happy exploring!
