Areas to visit
Solang Adventure Zone
Paragliding, zorbing, ATV rides, and a ropeway to 3,600m, the adrenaline capital of Himachal. Best in Aug–Oct before snow closes the passes.

Old Manali & Hadimba Temple
Cedar forest walks, the 16th-century wooden temple, and the hippie-era cafes of Old Manali, perfect recovery day after Solang.
