3 Days Hill Station Escape Tour

Day 1

Arrive in Kasauli from the nearest major cities like Chandigarh or Shimla. The drive itself is scenic and refreshing, offering glimpses of the changing landscape as you ascend into the hills. Check into your hotel or resort, ideally one that offers good views of the surrounding mountains. Spend some time settling in and enjoying the tranquil atmosphere. After lunch, head out to explore the Kasauli Mall Road. Unlike the bustling mall roads of other hill stations, Kasauli’s Mall Road is quieter, offering a pleasant walk amidst shops selling local handicrafts, woolens, and souvenirs. Don’t miss trying out local snacks from the roadside eateries. 

Visit the Sunset Point to catch a breathtaking view of the sun dipping below the horizon, coloring the sky in hues of orange and pink. The walk to Sunset Point is serene and can be quite rejuvenating. Return to your hotel and enjoy a peaceful dinner. Many hotels in Kasauli offer outdoor dining options where you can enjoy your meal under the stars.

Day 2

Start your day early with a visit to the Gilbert Trail, a beautiful walking path known for its lush greenery and quiet surroundings. It’s an ideal spot for bird watching and enjoying the early morning peace of Kasauli. Proceed to the Kasauli Brewery, one of the oldest whisky distilleries in Asia, where you can learn about the process of whisky making and enjoy some tasting sessions. The heritage and the rustic charm of the place are quite captivating.

Have lunch in one of the local cafes, offering a variety of cuisines along with great views. Post lunch, visit the Christ Church, a remarkable example of colonial architecture, set against a backdrop of chestnut and fir trees. Spend the evening at the Kasauli Club, if you can gain access, or enjoy a leisurely walk through the pine forests. The calm and serene atmosphere is perfect for introspection or a romantic stroll. Enjoy your dinner at a restaurant offering local Himachali cuisine. Many places in Kasauli serve excellent Himachali food, which is both hearty and flavorful.

On your last day, visit the Monkey Point, the highest point in Kasauli, offering panoramic views of the surrounding hills and the distant plains. The Hanuman Temple at the top is a significant pilgrimage site and provides a peaceful ambiance. After checking out from your hotel, grab a leisurely lunch and take one last stroll around the town, soaking in its peaceful vibe. This is a good time to buy some local jams, pickles, and other souvenirs to take back home. Begin your journey back home, carrying with you the calm and serenity of Kasauli. The drive back is a good time to reflect on the tranquil moments you’ve experienced in this charming hill station.
