Detailed Itinerary

Stroll around Mall Road, the Ridge or the local Tibetan Market for a mild introduction to the hill town. Overnight stay in Shimla.
Begin your day with a good breakfast and go to Kufri, which is among the most frequented high-altitude sites in Shimla. The 20km road trip is through dense cedar trees. In Kufri, one can see the Himalayan ranges, ride ponies, or do adventure activities in seasons.
