Mountains and hills are mind-boggling serene locations to go for tranquillity and live in restful surroundings. Waking up to the panoramic views, snow-covered slopes and admiring lush greenery are the beautiful offerings that a hillock would have for you in-store. Have a picnic on the picturesque cliff watching the sunset and surrender yourself to nature; indulge in activities like trekking, camping and river rafting to rejuvenate yourself. Come back home with a refreshed mind to get back to your daily routine.
At around Rs. 30, 000 you can actually look at planning a fairly lavish vacation with 2-3 star hotels, some fun-filled activities, moderately budgeted restaurants and bar with relishing delicacies, and commuting by flights. You can still travel by a train to save on to some amount which you can happily use up for shopping at the tourist markets. Pre-planning and pre-booking is still recommended to avoid any unplanned over expenditure.
Manali, Gulmarg, Shimla, Nainital, Kasol, Srinagar, Kodaikanalar, Mussoorie, McLeodganj, Chopta, Kalimpong, Pelling, Shillong, Mahabaleshwar and Munnar are undoubtedly the best destinations for you to add on your bucket list to discover hills.
Make your booking at least 3 months before your travel date to avail the best deals on flights and hotels. Sign up for city tours and food walks in advance to avoid last-minute charges. You can appreciate staying at cool places and eat at popular restaurants if you plan your itinerary much in advance.
Leather jackets, thermals, gloves, leg warmers, socks, comfortable walking shoes, lip balm/sunscreen/lotion, wind-cheaters, sweaters/pullovers, mufflers, woollen socks, earmuffs, backpack, umbrella, camera and most importantly a first-aid kit are the best things to pack whilst travelling to the hills.
