Overview
What if a backpacking trip could take you away from the hustle and bustle of city life and into the surreal Himalayan bliss? That’s what we would be doing in this Himachal Backpacking Trip to Bir-Manali-Kasol.
We will kick off our journey from New Delhi and head towards Bir, which is the “Paragliding Capital of India”, also a noted center for ecotourism, spiritual studies, and meditation. Spend your day paragliding and visiting the local attractions such as Bir waterfall and spend some time in the evening cafe hopping and trying the local delicacies.
Next up, we will make our way toward Manali, which is one of the most famous Himalayan towns in India. While here, we will explore the famous “Mall Road” of Manali and also head to “Old Manali” where the blissful cafes by the river Beas will leave you enchanted. The day would be somewhat for leisure so you are free to do whatever you want.
From Kullu Valley, we will go to Sissu which is a beautiful village nestled in Lahaul Valley via the Atal tunnel, which is the longest tunnel above 10,000ft in the world. Watch the landscapes take a dramatic shift as you enter Lahaul valley, with the green canopies giving way to rustic brown mountains which are covered in thick layers of snow in the winter season.
While in Sissu, we’ll be taking a small hike towards Sissu waterfall and exploring the village and nearby areas. Then, we'll head back to Manali where we'll spend some blissful hours.
Next in our itinerary for this Himachal backpacking trip to Bir-Manali-Kasol, is the tiny hamlet of Kasol.
Kasol, famously known as the "Mini Israel of India" is a tiny hamlet settled along the Parvati river in Parvati Valley. Feel your inner calm grow amidst the Himalayas as we take a hike towards Chalal village and spend some time by the Parvati river. After this, we will go towards Gurudwara Manikaran Sahib for another local spot to explore in Kasol.
If you want a break from the daily routine and monotony, here’s a chance to rejuvenate yourself by joining our Himachal Backpacking Trip to Bir-Manali-Kasol.

my first solo, i was overwhelmed when I booked it but ended up having an amazing time. Sara, our trip captain, always approached us with a smile on her face. I felt as though I had a friend with me all along the trip. She always took the right decision at the right time which made the trip an absolute success and even more memorable. Apart from visiting beautiful spots(bir-manali-kasol), got to meet with amazing people, ate yummy food and lovely/comfortable stays. leaving my heart and tummy at content. So thanks to Justwravel for it was a surreal moment. Looking forward for more such travels with Justwravel.
